Proper CLO2 PPM for Safe & Effective Use In Agriculture

In agriculture, clean water and sanitized systems aren’t optional—they’re essential to yield, livestock health, and biosecurity. Chlorine dioxide (ClO₂) offers farmers a powerful edge against pathogens, but only when used at the correct strength. Whether you're flushing irrigation lines, washing produce, or deep-cleaning stalls, knowing your PPM makes all the difference between safe and effective—or wasted and risky.

Chlorine Dioxide in Agriculture: Safe, Powerful Sanitization with the Right PPM Control

🌱 Why Chlorine Dioxide Belongs on the Farm

In today’s agriculture, the battle against pathogens, biofilm, and cross-contamination isn’t just fought in barns and fields—it’s fought at the microscopic level.

Chlorine dioxide (ClO₂) has emerged as a safe and effective alternative to traditional harsh chemicals. It’s powerful against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and mold without leaving harmful residues or causing resistance over time.

But just like seed rates and nutrient loads, the strength matters. Using the correct parts per million (PPM) ensures you get the performance you need without harming crops, animals, or infrastructure.

🌾 ClO₂ PPM Ranges for Agricultural Applications

Here’s how farmers, growers, and ranchers are using chlorine dioxide today—and what concentration levels to target for each job:


Low Range Test Strip Bottle🚰 Low Range (0.5–25 PPM)

Used for:

  • Livestock drinking water (cattle, poultry, hogs, goats)

  • Irrigation water treatment

  • Fruit and vegetable washing

  • Misting systems in greenhouses or poultry houses

  • Drip line and sprayer line flushes

Benefits:

  • Controls biofilm in water systems

  • Reduces bacterial contamination in produce

  • Keeps animal hydration systems safe and disease-free

  • Enhances shelf life and appearance of harvested crops

Tool:
✅ Use Low-Range ClO₂ Test Strips (0–100 PPM) to ensure safe water contact levels.


🧼 Mid Range (25–500 PPM)

Used for:

  • Stall cleaning and disinfection

  • Sanitizing greenhouse equipment

  • Milking rooms, feeding stations, and prep areas

  • Egg washing (where approved)

  • Seed washing and pre-treatment

  • Footbaths for biosecurity zones

Benefits:

  • Targets mold, bacteria, and viral contamination

  • Maintains animal health and hygiene

  • Protects seed viability and minimizes fungal load

  • Prevents disease transfer across tools and facilities

Tool:
✅ Use Low- or High-Range Test Strips depending on your water volume and target zone.


High Range Test Strip Bottle🚜 High Range (500–2500 PPM)

Used for:

  • Flood sanitation (barns, stalls, greenhouses after heavy rain)

  • Mold remediation on walls, feed bins, or floors

  • Biosecurity decontamination (boots, wheels, trailers)

  • Post-outbreak cleaning (avian flu, swine diseases, etc.)

  • Deep cleaning of animal housing between herds or flocks

Benefits:

  • Penetrates heavy bioorganic matter and eliminates spores

  • Helps reset facilities after disease or contamination

  • Non-corrosive to most materials when used as directed

  • Breaks down odor-causing compounds

Tool:
✅ Use High-Range ClO₂ Test Strips (0–2500 PPM) to verify fogging, soaking, or deep-cleaning concentrations.
