How are vegetables tutor 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 etc.) Are amongst the various crops that require a support system allowing them to grow and preventing. Their stems and branching stems from buckling under the weight of their fruits. The way that vegetable tutoring is carry out is vitally important due to the changing weather conditions. That the crop will be subject to: strong winds, heavy rains etc. These can leave the crop prone to developing diseases such as funguses, bacteria and/or viruses.

In order to tutor vegetable crops, it is recommend that a horticultural support netting. (or trellis netting) is use instead of agricultural raffia. Netting is more hard-wearing, made from a single piece, re-usable and easy to install. On the other hand, raffia is less resistant for tutoring vegetables, made up of various strands. That can retain moisture, is not re-usable and requires a large workforce to install it.

Tutoring Vegetables using a double wall along both sides of the furrow

Tomatoes are best tutor using a double rowed system of support netting (in sandwich or “V” formation). This method of tutoring facilitates the carrying out of various agricultural tasks. Double rowed tutoring can also be use to great advantage with crops of chillies. The plants are neatly encase and support by the netting and the aisles are keep clear. Enabling the farm workers to easily apply fertilizers and/or herbicides and insecticides. When tutoring hayotes squash, cucumbers or eggplants (aubergines) and other curcubits, a single row of support netting is generally use. With chayotes and cucumbers, their tendrils allow the plants to climb up. The trellis netting in order to get better sun exposure. For this reason, the work load is reduce as the plants climb up. By themselves and there is not so much of a need to guide them manually.

Some of the diseases than most affect crops are transmitte manually. That is, by the handling of the seedlings from when they are transplant and later when they are being tutor. These activities along with mismanagement of sanitary issues create the ideal circumstances for disease to be transmitt. Tutoring crops with HORTOMALLAS® prevents the crops from being in contact with the damp soil. Allows for adequate spacing and better ventilation and sun exposure. Additionally, it reduces the handling of the plants and the work force needed. Helping to prevent the manual transmission of diseases.
