Hail netting

polyethylene

Hail is one of the most damaging adverse weather conditions for a fruit grower. It can destroy entail harvests. Hail netting is the most efficient protection system of the plants, which can ensure a continuity of production over time. The hail netting is made of polyethylene monofilament, which is UV stabilized and durable. The hail netting can prevent the hail from damaging the plants and ensure the harvests. Hail netting can be divided into three types: Cross stitched hail netting, leno-weaving hail netting and sawtooth hail netting. Cross stitched hail netting Cross stitched hail netting has a main mesh plus strands of monofilament that stretch across the aperture of the main mesh and reduce the hole size. The strands of monofilament are known as cross-stitches. The cross stitched hail netting catches the hail and stretches. The holding cables or posts are positioned over the tree rows and the nets will sag into the inter-row space when the hails attack the nets. This design can minimize the damage to the trees.
