During the International Mechanisation and Demonstration fair at Research Centre Hoogstraten we will discuss the use of UV-C light in strawberry production to control powdery mildew, but also other diseases and pests. We will take a deep dive into the most import results of the Interreg NWE UV-ROBOT project and will visit the trial in our greenhouse to see the robot in action.
24 September 2022; 10h00-17h00; Proefcentrum Hoogstraten, Voort 71, 2328 Meerle Read More
