PROJECT SUMMARYProblem and opportunityDue to the customer demand for convenience and healthy choices the market for pre-cut producehas been growing significantly. However this value-added produce is prone to significant microbialrisks leading to an alarming number of recalls in recent years. Since post-harvest washing is criticalfor mitigating this problem several produce processors have encourage ...

RUTE SUNTRACKER (RST) is a new hardware solution that supports PV solar above cattlepasture. RST is a cable-stayed pole-mounted high-clearance solar tracker system. High-clearancesolar saves rangeland saves water and increases farm income especially important for smallranches where income has decreased below sustainable levels due to climate stress. RST addressesUSDA Strategic Goal 1: Combat Clima ...
