Disinfectant for Agriculture is essential to use to combat the various pests which badly affect crops and have a very serious impact on the economic output of farms.
Microbial pathogens (bacteria, virus and fungi) affect the healthy growth processes of plants in many different ways. For example
Thus pathogen control by agricultural disinfectant plays a key role in safeguarding crop productivity against competition from weeds, animal pests, pathogens and viruses.

Pristine Water offers the eco-friendliest, safe and economical Pre and Post-Harvest Organic Biocide for your Field, Farm and Farm Animals.
Our range of On-site Hypochlorous Solution (HOCl) Generators are spearheading a revolution in safe, effective biocides for animal welfare, biosecurity, and crop protection.
Inspired by the human body’s natural defences, its products are made of the same acid produced by the body to fight viruses and bacteria, making them completely safe for people and animals.
HOCl is a naturally occurring element that can easily penetrate the cell wall and membrane. Once inside the cell, it oxidizes various components of the cell, such as the mitochondrion, which is the powerhouse of the cell. Exposure to HOCl inactivates cells of bacteria, viruses and fungi, that affect crops and farm animals.
Spraying a weak Hypochlorous Solution every 3 to 5 days since seeding on most of the crops like strawberry, tomato etc. prevents mildew and anthrax and showed significant decrease in fulva, spotting disease, wilt disease & eliminates bacteria.
A potential alternative to fungicides to control foliar disease is the use of electrolyzed oxidizing (EO) water. EO water is generated by electrolysis of a dilute solution of Sodium Chloride (Salt) in an Electrolysis Chamber.
By adding HypoGrow to recirculating (and non-recirculating) growing systems operators observe - removal and prevention of deposits and biofilms, reduced root borne diseases, improved nutrient absorption, reduced potential habitat for pathogens, and optimization of root zone performance models.
Common Salt (NaCl) is mixed with water. If the pH in the feed water is high, an appropriate pH balancer is added to reduce the pH. This system has a generator that has Titanium electrodes coated with precious metal oxides. DC current passes between the electrodes, converting the salt solution into Hypochlorous Solution or Electrolyzed Water. This is a very effective disinfectant for agriculture.
For an Irrigation volume of 100 cubic meter per acre, if 20 ppm of Hypochlorous Solution is to be applied, then 2 kgs of HOCl is used. Hence, the required capacity will be 2 kgs per week per acre, which is 285 grams/day.
Using this system, you can make your own disinfectant for agriculture.
Based on your farm size and application, we can help you select the system size that is right.
