Capstone Team Developing a CO2 Sensor to Help Farmers
A challenge many corn farmers face is preventing and detecting the spread of Aspergillus in silos or other grain storages. Aspergillus is dangerous to consume because it produces an aflatoxin that can cause liver cancer and cannot be exported. Having entire storages of corn become infected can be devastating for farmers and a huge loss of income, so developing methods to detect early spread of Aspergillus is extremely important.
