Autumn protection nets

Securing crops against weather and pests
Autumn protection nets

As autumn approaches, weather conditions become more unpredictable. Strong winds, sudden rain, the arrival of migratory birds, and the late activity of certain insects can seriously damage late-season crops. Faced with these threats, static protection is not enough. Automated, EDAMS-controlled protection nets offer a dynamic and reliable solution to secure your production.

Thanks to connected weather sensors, the EDAMS system reacts instantly and with pinpoint accuracy. The motors automatically deploy or retract the nets, providing an effective physical barrier against pests and inclement weather without requiring manual intervention from the operator. For example, if strong winds are detected, the net retracts to prevent any risk of tearing or damage to the structure. Conversely, if pests appear, the net can be closed automatically with a simple command or programmed into the system.

This dynamic management of the openings optimizes the environment beneath the structure: by adjusting the shade netting, you optimize light intake according to cloud cover, a crucial factor when natural light begins to decline. Similarly, by controlling the opening of the side nets, you improve ventilation to better regulate ambient humidity and prevent fungal diseases that thrive in the cold and damp conditions of autumn.

Automating the nets significantly reduces the use of chemical inputs, improves the quality of leafy vegetables, and ensures reliable production under changing weather conditions. Remote control simplifies management and allows for an immediate response to unforeseen weather events. Investing in this technology guarantees you protected, high-quality autumn harvests, while also ensuring significant time savings for your teams.
