<pre>Hi all,

Some fascinating news just to hand shows that German researchers have
been testing a mixture of olive-waste polyphenols against common crop-
damaging fungi and having some startling and quite unexpected success
in treating various molds in wine and other food production systems.

It appears that depending on the concentration, the polyphenols and
their breakdown products severely inhibited the growth of Fusarium
culmorum, a wheat blight, and Botrytis cinerea, the so-called gray
mold that turns mature strawberries and raspberries to mush and
causes blueberries and wine grapes to shrivel and drop.

This is HUGE news for anyone in the olive buisness and a full
explanation can be read at the FORUMS section of :
