 The
protection of valuable crops from the damage caused by birds has
now become a factor in crop management and control.
Birds can
deplete the crop tonnage dramatically. Bird pecked fruit can lead
to oxidation and bacterial infection, which will compromise the
quality of the fruit giving rise to volatile acidity in the wine.
Bird control can
be one of the most critical control factors in grape growing.
Netting is the
most effective bird control solution in the vineyard today.
Netting is
lightweight, making handling easier when installing and removing.
It allows light
and air to filter through so there is little shading during the
ripening process. The unrestricted air movement ensures that
diseases to the wine canopy do not occur.

Net and Forget
with Cropsafe Netting
Cropsafe Netting
was developed over a number of years, the goal being to produce a
cost effective net that would protect crops from bird and pest
damage. At the same time ensuring that fruit development was
unrestricted. The net had to be strong, resistant to the
deteriorating effects of the sun and it had to be easy to install
and remove.
Strength was
critical as the same net could be used a number of times during
the one season. It has become common practice in Australia to move
nets from the early to the later ripening varieties, ensuring
maximum use and value from the nets.
Cropsafe Netting
has been tested for mesh strength and has shown to have a tensile
strength superior to many nets out in the market today. It has
been combined with UV treatment, which protects the net from the
deteriorating effects of the sun. Cropsafe netting will be there
to protect your crops for many years.
Environmentally
friendly, cost effective, east to install- Cropsafe netting will
protect crops from bird and pest damage.
