Spanning across three orchard rows per netting module and using a heavy-duty, continuous central zipper running along the middle row. This reduces the total number of posts and hardware required per hectare while creating a high-clearance canopy overhead.
Depending on whether the system is manual (cable-and-pulley / tractor-drawn platform) or motorized / automated, rolling or unclipping nets across a hectare typically takes a few hours with a small crew. With the zip system, nets can be zipped open and closed in a matter of minutes. Quick storm reaction.
Retractable systems carry a higher initial capital cost than fixed netting, but seasonal opening/closing labour costs are offset by higher packout rates (less sunburn, hail damage, and bee pollination issues).
High-tensile support cables, heavy-duty wire/clips, and anti-friction guide rings ensure the net slides smoothly without tearing along structural wires during high winds.
Many 3-row overhead cable frameworks can be adapted for woven shade/hail netting, bird mesh, or poly rain covers depending on the specific crop requirements (e.g., cherries, berries, stone fruit, or citrus).
