🤖 Robots in the vineyard? Yes! Rather than applying oils and sulfur—these bots deliver a UV-C light directly to the vine canopy, disrupting the reproductive cycle of powdery mildew, botrytis, and sour rot without leaving residues, soil disruption, compaction or ecological side effects in their wake. Conventional chemicals used in viticulture have a far greater impact on ecology than the organic permitted products, but all of them have some impact. Out of all of these products, low dose UV-C has by far the lowest impact on ecosystem health as it’s non residual and non-persistent. 🌎
