Traditionally, seed producers have had to use harsh chemical treatments to eliminate contaminants that kill seeds and reduce yields. Chlorine bleach and various other chemical-based decontamination processes have slowly been phased-out by newly implemented regulations in many regions around the globe. Lacking an effective alternative, seed producers are left with inferior and more expensive options.
For seed decontamination, we are able to increase seed efficacy while meeting the new regulations within the European Union. Delivering safer and more effective seed to international clients is easier with Yofumo.
Our natural organic gaseous ozone decontamination solution gently and safely decontaminates seeds without the use of harsh chemicals, radiation or heat, increasing seed efficacy by up to 30%.
Yofumo’s patented decontamination technology is proven to be effective at eliminating Fusarium oxysporum, Phytophthora spp, Bacillus and Pseudomonas and has been tested with tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, peppers and watermelon. The African and International Industrial Hemp seed markets are other seed sectors within which our technology can be implemented successfully.
In collaboration with our partners at AgroIntec SL, Yofumo’s solutions have undertaken multiple trials with the Spanish agency, the Andalusian Institute of Agricultural and Fisheries Research (IFAPA) in order to leverage our gaseous ozone technology for the application of non-residual, organic, post-harvest processes for the global seed industry.
Decontaminate and treat seeds organically without chemicals or radiation and without residue.
Yofumo’s technology allows for the entirely organic enhancement and modification of terpene profiles. Residue free and dry, organic application that increases seed efficacy by up to 30%.
Yofumo’s processes exceed all international and EU phytosanitary requirements for the provision of clean, disease free seed.
Needing no chemicals, Yofumo methodology use the atmosphere within the unit to generate ozone, decontaminate seeds, and safely convert it back to oxygen. This means there is no money spent on chemical supplies in order to run the unit. Our technology is also incredibly energy efficient and uses a minimal amount of power.
