Keeping food processing equipment and livestock disease free can be challenging. Conventional antimicrobials can be costly to use as they require high water usage and significant manpower. The high number of viruses, bacteria, molds and fungi that can infect food and livestock is daunting, and new threats crop up every day. You want to use something broad-based for comprehensive effectiveness, but you also want to make sure it is economical and environmentally acceptable.
