How TRIC Robotics Uses UV Light to Cut Pesticides on Strawberries

How TRIC Robotics Is Reducing Pesticide Use on Strawberries with UV Light Strawberries are beloved across the U.S., but they come with a hidden cost: high pesticide use. In fact, they routinely top the Dirty Dozen list from the Environmental Working Group due to their heavy pesticide contamination. As more consumers demand pesticide-free produce and regulations tighten, farmers are looking for innovative, eco-friendly solutions. That’s where TRIC Robotics comes in. Using UV light to reduce pesticide use on strawberries, this California-based startup is redefining how crops are protected—without harmful chemicals. With robotic automation, sustainable farming, and data-driven technology all rolled into one, TRIC Robotics is offering a new path forward for the agriculture industry.
