The Role of Anti-insect Netting and Methods of Covering Fruit Trees

Author:

Anti-insect Netting is similar to window screens, with strong tensile strength, resistance to ultraviolet rays, heat, water, corrosion, aging and other properties. It is non-toxic and odorless, and has a service life of 4-6 years, up to 10 years. It has the advantages of shading net and overcomes the shortcomings of shading net, and it is worth promoting.

The role of Anti-insect Netting

Frost and cold prevention

During the young fruit period and fruit maturity period of fruit trees, low temperature can cause cold damage or freezing damage. Covering with anti-insect netting is beneficial to improve the temperature and humidity inside the net, and the isolation of anti-insect netting prevents frost damage to the fruit surface, which has a significant effect on preventing frost damage to loquat young fruit period and cold damage to citrus fruit maturity period.

Pest control

After covering the orchard and nursery with anti-insect netting, it can prevent the occurrence and spread of various fruit pests such as aphids, psyllids, fruit sucking moths, fruit borers, fruit flies, and control the harm of vector insects such as aphids and psyllids. It plays an important role in preventing and controlling the spread of citrus Huanglongbing and decline diseases, as well as controlling fruit fly pests in pitaya and blueberry.

Fruit drop prevention

During the fruit maturity period, there are often rainy days in summer. By choosing to cover with Anti-insect Netting, it can reduce the fruit drop caused by heavy rain, especially for pitaya, blueberry, and bayberry fruit when encountering rainy years, which can significantly reduce fruit drop.

Improving temperature and sunlight

Covering with anti-insect netting can reduce the intensity of sunlight, regulate soil temperature and air temperature and humidity, and reduce the precipitation and evaporation of water in the net chamber, reducing leaf transpiration. After covering with Anti-insect Netting, the relative humidity of the air is higher than that of the control, among which the highest humidity is on rainy days, but the difference is smallest and the increase is lowest. After the relative humidity inside the net chamber is increased, it can reduce the transpiration of fruit trees like citrus leaves. Water affects fruit quality development through precipitation and relative humidity of the air, which is more conducive to the growth and development of fruit and high-quality fruit.

Fruit tree covering methods for Anti-insect Netting

Shed type : Firstly, the shed frame is built, the slot is fastened between the shed frames, and the anti-insect net is covered on the shed frame. The ground around is pressed with cement, and the front of the greenhouse is left with a door.

Cover type : Put Anti-insect Netting directly on the fruit tree and support it with bamboo poles. It can be covered for single or multiple trees at the same time, which is easy to operate and reduce costs, but it will cause inconvenient field management, and it is mainly suitable for short-term and seasonal frost and cold prevention, heavy rain prevention, bird prevention, etc., as well as frost and cold prevention and fruit fly and bird damage prevention during the fruit ripening period.
