As a grower or supplier in horticulture, you know that water quality forms the foundation for a successful harvest.

USAF.nl offers an advanced ultrasonic solution for the effective control of pathogens and algae in irrigation, flushing, and spray water.

Effective control of pathogens in irrigation water.

In horticulture, water can be a source of risk: pathogens such as viruses (Tobrev and cucumber mosaic), fungi (Pythium, Fusarium), green algae, and cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) can spread rapidly in drain and irrigation water. This can lead to infections, stunted growth, and ultimately reduced crop yields.

The Benefits of USAF for Agriculture.

  • Significantly higher yields
  • Eco-friendly and regulation-compliant
  • Scientifically proven
  • Low maintenance

USAF helps growers manage pathogens efficiently in an eco-friendly manner.

USAF helps growers effectively control pathogens in an environmentally friendly way. Using ultrasonic cavitation, the membranes of harmful viruses, bacteria, and fungi are disrupted, causing them to die or allowing them to be managed more efficiently with supplementary disinfection. This greatly reduces reliance on chemical agents and improves water quality in basins and drains, leading to healthier and more productive crops.

Our system is highly effective, low-maintenance, and easily scalable – from small growing systems to large basin installations. We work proactively with distributors and growers to deliver customized solutions. In this way, our products help optimize both plant health and your operational efficiency.

Proven and validated.

Together with laboratories and leading experimental farms, we gather valuable insights. Independent laboratories can analyze water samples before and after installing our products, so you know exactly what changes occur in your drain and irrigation water.

Our system is scientifically substantiated and has been extensively tested across various experimental farms. Collaborations with multiple trial sites and universities, including Utrecht University, trial site Vertify and Ron Peters (Netherlands), provide concrete recommendations for effectively reducing bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

Practical tests show that combining our solutions with a low dose of hydrogen peroxide results in the effective removal of pathogens from irrigation water.
