Bioristor, a startup of CNR IMEM of Parma, runner-up at the last edition of Start Cup Emilia-Romagna with a biocompatible and flexible electrochemical device for real-time monitoring of plant sap, is at the Italian Pavilion in Expo, with a permanent installation until February 26.
The innovative technology, which allows to measure data on the physiological condition of plants, to calculate the optimal irrigation, to detect in time drought stress and to save up to 40% of water reserves, will be applied to the different Mediterranean types of plants present inside Giardino Italia and will measure their health status and the level of irrigation.
