Supporting your crops®
Mechanical stress in plants reduces crop yields by up to 8-10%.
In horticulture we want our plants to grow and produce fruit weight at full speed and mechanical stress due to excessive handling and tutoring does exactly the opposite, it slows vegetable production as the plant will send its energies and nourishment to repair its micro tissue damages while redirecting its leaves towards the sun! HORTOMALLAS trellis netting allows the plant to grow undisturbed leaning and attaching itself to the trellis support while reducing the spreading phytopathogens of mechanically.
Install hexagonal netting in your garden or for poultry protection. The net is manufactured from carbon steel wire, hot dipped galvanised wire or plastic. A common agricultural device, this net is available at farm supply stores. Hexagonal netting is also known as chicken netting. It creates room for ventilation and keeps your flocks away from the […]
(0) CommentsWater stress in Solanceae reduces profitability Horticultural support netting creates the right conditions to enable water stress to be reduced on crops of serrano pepper chilies (capisicum annuum L.). During its development stages when the plant finds water available, it readily absorbs it through its roots (a recurring topic of interest for those who work […]
(0) CommentsHow are vegetables tutored today? Tutoring vegetables is an important part of modern agriculture although the materials and tutoring methods have changed as time has moved on, from tutoring with traditional raffia, to using horticultural trellis netting which has become popular in recent years. Solanaceae (tomatoes, chili peppers and eggplants/aubergines), cucurbits (chayote, pumpkin, cantaloupe melons, watermelons […]
(0) CommentsMechanical stress reduces your production yield by many tons per hectare Mechanical stress appears as a physical alteration in the plant or in one of its parts and can affect the plant at any stage of its development. Wind and rain are the main factors causing mechanical stress but there are other factors too such […]
(0) CommentsAdvantages of double walled tutoring nets on both sides of furrows. The method of using double walled tutoring nets reduces the mechanical stress on the plants and slows down the spread of plant pathogens. You might ask yourself how to save manpower when fastening plants to the HORTOMALLAS horticultural netting. Using double rows of netting trellis […]
(1) CommentsHeavy rains due to climate change, increase crop failures due to humidity related pathogens. Today is essential to cultivate using trellising net when growing vegetables due to weather change. We are facing possibly irreversible climatic changes that have modified in short term our climate worldwide, changing ecosystems, breaking balance of the environment for the species […]
