Abstract
- Low-temperature plasma (LTP) science and technology are rapidly establishing their place in agriculture, with already existing or envisaged future commercial applications in (i) sustainable fertilizer production, (ii) food safety "from farm to fork", and (iii) in reducing pollution and pathogens. On-demand local fertilizer production or pathogen inactivation at the farm by LTP technology will reduce the need for complex logistics. This current S.I. consists of one review article and 14 original research papers, focusing on state-of-the-art LTP applications in agricultural and food-related fields, ranging from the basics of activating air and water by electrical discharges and the treatment and decontamination of seeds and plants, to LTP use as a food processing technology.
