Keeping it clean with agri-tech innovation – Agri-TechE

Preventing and removing sources of infection and contamination has been front of everyone’s mind recently. Yet this has been top of the agenda in the agri-food supply chain for years, and recent innovations have brought it into sharp focus as we are all more mindful of managing harmful microbes.

Maintaining standards around viral, bacterial and fungal contamination in the agri-food system is going to be even more crucial as global supply chains continue to move raw ingredients and partly and wholly processed food material around the globe. Different markets have different approaches to their standards and tools used to stop and kill harmful pathogens threatening to enter the food and feed chain.

New innovations are emerging, harnessing different approaches, novel solutions and even different states of matter to help manage potential contamination. This is your opportunity to find out more about some possible new solutions to managing bacterial burdens, virus threats and fungal challenges.
