What are the benefits of using anti-insect nets when growing citrus?
1. Blocking foreign creatures
According to the size of the mesh, the insect net can play a significant barrier to pests and rats that harm citrus. This is beneficial for controlling the occurrence of citrus aphids and psyllids, thereby inhibiting viral diseases transmitted by mites and hibiscus.
2. Ameliorating temperature and humidity and light intensity
The insect net has the functions of reducing light intensity, adjusting soil and air temperature, humidity and so on. At the same time, it can reduce the amount of precipitation under the insect net, reduce the evaporation of water under the insect net, and weaken the transpiration of the citrus leaves.
3. Preventing falling fruit
In summer, the stormy weather is more frequent. If you plant citrus under the insect net, it can alleviate the damage caused by the storm. In particular, reduce the physiological drop caused by rain.
4.Early maturity
When citrus is grown under the insect net, it will cause the temperature inside the insect net to warm up earlier, which will lead to early maturity of citrus. Premature maturity can stagger the peak period of citrus listing, which can increase the income and create higher profits for fruit farmers.
