Vegtech2000 offers a wide range of specialised nets to combat common problems occurring in modern agricultural environments.
Insect Nets
Insect Nets from Vegtech2000 form a physical barrier to block out insects from greenhouses, tunnels and shade houses, saving on the substantial cost of spraying programs. The nets are ideal for environments which produce for markets which monitor pesticide residue (export), as well as for organic markets which forbid pesticide use.
