Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Ozone is used in agriculture technological processes in the form of gas or water solutions. This strong oxidant is used both at the final stage of production, i.e., the hygienization of finished products, and at earlier stages, stimulating development and protecting plants. It is also used as a destructive factor of chemical plant protection products. Ozone is safe, but its toxicity requires the use of mature technical culture. Our knowledge of ozone is moving faster and faster from design research to implementation in food and agricultural production.
