Zasso’s Electroherb™ is a non-selective, systemic solution ideal for non-chemical crop protection in Agricultural fields. Its early integration in agricultural practices can make this unique and innovative technique a sufficient substitute when chemical herbicides begin to lose approvals.

The non-invasive Electroherb™ presents a significant contribution to preserving and promoting soil-conserving agricultural practices as legislation concerning chemical solutions become more stringent.

• It does not leave any toxic residues in the soil, unlike chemical treatments
• In contrast to mechanical weeding, there is no soil movement: erosion risks and disturbance of the soil structure are both avoided, and dormant seeds are not stimulated
• In contract to thermal weeding, the targeted energy directly affects the roots without unnecessarily heating up and damaging the surrounding ground and the environment on a large scale

Electroherb™ can be applied in all year and in all crops.  Favourable working conditions include:

• Electrically conductive wet plant
• Dry soil allowing the current to stay longer in the root of the plant
• Sun and heat after application to facilitate drying

Zasso has developed mechanical systems for Total Area application as well as inter-row and inter-cep applications.  Depending on the type of weed (high leafy plants, low or high grasses) and the substrate below (soil or hard underground), the applicators will have a different design to guarantee optimal energy transfer.
