Hygiène et stérilisation
Hygiene and sterilization in horticulture are essential to ensure plant health and prevent disease. This reduces the proliferation of pathogens such as bacteria, fungi and viruses, which can cause serious infections such as root rot. Good hygiene promotes healthy plant growth, creating an environment conducive to plant development. It also protects equipment and systems such as tanks and hydroponic installations, preventing biofilm build-up and cross-contamination. What's more, it limits the spread of pathogens, preserving the health of crops as a whole. Finally, this practice is crucial to meeting safety standards, particularly in professional contexts where crop quality and safety must be guaranteed. In short, maintaining rigorous hygiene and regularly sterilizing areas and equipment is essential to ensure productive crops without health risks.
