Ozone in agriculture is showing that making proper use of this biocide in the field has a positive impact on the quality of the crop, savings in chemical products, as well as being respectful of the environment.

Foliar ozone is a technique that is increasingly used in agriculture, and has multiple advantages in the production of olive crops. Some of them are:

1. Increases production: Foliar ozone helps improve the quality of the olive, improving the yield of the olive trees.

2. Reduces diseases and pests: Foliar ozone is a powerful disinfectant that helps reduce the presence of fungi, bacteria and other pathogens in olive crops, as well as a powerful ovicidal and larvicidal effect against many types of pests.

3. Improves soil quality: Foliar ozone helps to eliminate organic residues and other contaminants from the soil, improving its quality and increasing fertility.

4. Reduced use of chemicals: The use of foliar ozone can reduce the need to use synthetic chemicals in olive cultivation, which can have a positive impact on human and environmental health.

5. Significant economic savings: by reducing the use of phytosanitary products, we are able to save on consumable products that must be provided in each treatment.

Types of diseases that ozone controls in olive cultivation

Ozone can help control a variety of diseases that affect olive crops, including: olive tuberculosis, verticilosis, anthracnose, botrytis and repilo. In addition, ozone can also help protect olive trees from the negative effects of frost and improve soil quality.

How to apply foliar treatment with ozone in olive cultivation?

It is important that a periodic monitoring of the crop conditions is carried out, in order to be able to adjust the moment of application according to the needs of the olive trees, taking into account that there is no safety period due to the qualities of ozone.

There are a series of considerations and recommendations for use, which our specialized technicians will recommend once the equipment is installed. With this specialized advice you will be able to get the most out of the equipment and multiply the benefits in the crop.

It is very important to have a reliable and developed generator. Our equipment guarantees the production of ozone and also incorporates the most advanced technology that includes all kinds of sensors and meters that allow us to verify its correct operation at all times. 

Examples of olive groves that already use ozone

Below we leave you several examples of olive groves treated with ozone, as well as a map of our agricultural generators installed in Spain, Portugal, France and Italy.
