[Automatic translation follows] Solution for stimulating the plant's natural defenses using UV-C flashes 🍓🍇 A gem @Technofounders
After discovering that UV-C flashes increase the resistance of plants to various pathogens, researchers Laurent Urban and Jawad Aarrouf filed a first patent in 2015. They then met Yves Matton, co-founder of Technofounders, with whom they joined forces and together created UV Boosting in 2016.
This innovative technology consists of stimulating the plant's natural defenses using UV-C flashes, triggering a defense mechanism: the plant is thus more resistant to pathogen attacks or abiotic stress (frost, drought, etc.).
The equipment offered has various advantages and in particular allows a flexible treatment rate, adapts to most standard agricultural machinery and does not require consumables.
As regulatory restrictions have become increasingly strict in recent years, UV Boosting aims to significantly reduce producers' dependence on fungicides and help them resist climate change, mainly on grapevine, strawberry, orchard and sports turf maintenance crops.

Solution de stimulation des défenses naturelles de la plante grâce aux flashs UV-C 🍓🍇 Une pépite @Technofounders
Après avoir découvert que les flashs UV-C augmentent la résistance des plantes face à divers pathogènes, les chercheurs Laurent Urban et Jawad Aarrouf déposent un premier brevet en 2015. Ils rencontrent alors Yves Matton, co-fondateur de Technofounders, avec qui ils s’associent et créent ensemble UV Boosting en 2016.
Cette technologie innovante consiste à stimuler les défenses naturelles de la plante grâce aux flashs UV-C, provoquant le déclenchement d’un mécanisme de défense : la plante est ainsi plus résistante aux attaques de pathogènes ou aux stress abiotiques (gel, sécheresse...).
Les équipements proposés ont divers avantages et permettent notamment une cadence de traitement flexible, s’adaptent à l’essentiel des engins agricoles standards et ne nécessitent pas de consommable.
Alors que les restrictions règlementaires se font de plus en plus strictes ces dernières années, UV Boosting ambitionne de réduire considérablement la dépendance des producteurs aux fongicides et de les aider à résister au changement climatique, principalement sur les cultures de la vigne, de la fraise, des vergers et sur l'entretien des gazons sportifs.
