Covering for Table Grapes

Cover for table grapes

20 April 2021 – Agralia News

AGRICOVER U is the cover designed for table grapes that combines high light transmission (86–90% in 600–800 nm) with efficient crop management. Its technology prevents rapid loss of brightness and allows positive results as long as an appropriate cover is chosen and correct crop management is carried out.

Light diffusion to improve crop development

AGRICOVER U converts direct light into diffuse light, improving photosynthesis, crop uniformity, and reducing evapotranspiration to save 25–30% of water and fertilizers. With a medium blockage of 86.2% of long-wave IR, it reduces thermal investment and provides an anti-frost effect, accelerating development and advancing harvest by 4 to 10 days depending on the area and variety.
