Insect nets in Gelderland
The Betuwe is a well-known region in Gelderland, which is particularly well known for its fruit cultivation. Of course it is of the utmost importance that fruit growers do not lose their fruit due to e.g. insect pests (Suzuki's fruit fly) or birds. FruitSecurity Holland has the solution for optimal protection of the harvest and delivers high quality insect nets for fruit growers in Gelderland and throughout the Netherlands.
Alternative pesticides for the Gelderland fruit crop
A not unimportant detail is that the insect net is a good alternative for (chemical) pesticides to ensure the safety of the Gelderland fruit crop. A sustainable solution for the growing demand from the market for crops that are grown safely. In this way you, as a grower in Gelderland, also contribute to a sustainable future.
The insect net against fruit flies and birds
The insect net from FruitSecurity Holland is fine mesh and made of plastic fabric and protects Gelderland crops from harmful insects and birds. The insect net protects the harvest of different crops such as: plants, soft fruit and cannabis. Because the material is so fine-meshed, it is an excellent tool to keep out especially the infamous Suzuki fruit fly. This fruit fly, which was originally found only in Asia, has unfortunately also found its way to Gelderland and mainly affects strawberries, raspberries, cherries, grapes, blackberries, blueberries and other soft fruits.
Eggs of the Suzuki fruit fly are laid in ripening fruit, especially those with thin skin. Normal fruit flies can be found near rotting fruit, but unfortunately the Suzuki fruit fly also affects good fruit. The insect net of FruitSecurity Holland can be used to keep this insect species away, so every fruit grower in Gelderland will see his or her harvest well protected and turnover will not be endangered. With a mesh opening of up to 1 mm2, no fruit fly will get through the insect net of FruitSecurity Holland. A commonly used insect net is Mesh 40.
KLY value and DRT
The insect net lasts a long time because of the UV stabilizers, which slow down the aging process of the plastic the net is made of. The KLY value of our Gelderland insect net is on average 600 KLY, far above the average in the Netherlands. The insect net lowers spray drift, putting all spraying techniques in a higher DRT class.
