Extreme cold crop burn is a situation that has been seen more frequently over the past few years, due to rising global temperatures. When temperatures drop below a certain point, crops begin to suffer severe damage. The effects can vary according to the temperature and the duration and type of cold winds, and generally begin with a hardening of the crop leaves, which affects the plant’s transpiration, causing dehydration that weakens the crop. Once the cold begins to release its effects, the initial symptoms start to develop into skin lesions that will later burn, completely exterminating the crop. Extreme cold scorch threatens a variety of crops, from fruits and vegetables to fruit trees and horticultural products. Extreme cold scorch is also most prevalent in the early stages of crop development, as vegetables have not yet reached maturity, making them more vulnerable to cold.
Cold strips crops of their protection from sun and heat, and causes severe damage to root systems, seeds and shoots. To prevent extreme cold-scorched crops, a key step is to prepare for weather conditions in advance. This means knowing the region in which you are growing, building adequate greenhouses to withstand the climate, keeping abreast of changes in temperature and atmospheric pressures in the area, and adjusting irrigation and fertilizer schedules to suit the weather conditions. Weed control is also very important to prevent extreme cold, as weeds create a protective barrier around crops, which helps prevent cold. In addition, there are some additional tactics that growers can take advantage of to prevent the effects of extreme cold. These techniques include installing drip irrigation systems, using clear cold-resistant plastics to help maintain soil temperature, constructing greenhouse roofs to prevent frost buildup, and using heat in greenhouses to prevent frost.
Disadvantages of not using thermal woven netting in a crop
One of the biggest challenges a farmer faces is ensuring that his crops produce good results. Over the years, farmers have been greatly helped by thermal knitted nets. These machines help them keep their crops at the optimum temperature for growth. However, there are some disadvantages to not using a woven netting on a crop. Crops that are not under a woven net are more vulnerable to adverse weather conditions. If temperatures are not suitable, crops can be damaged. This can have a negative effect on the quantity and quality of food produced. Many farmers depend on their crop production to stay afloat financially. Therefore, the reduction in income due to decreased production can be catastrophic to the farmer’s finances. Another disadvantage of not using a woven netting on a crop is that the farmer will constantly have to worry about maintaining the optimum moisture level.
High temperatures can somewhat reduce crop growth and production. A woven netting allows the farmer to control the amount of moisture in the soil without a great deal of additional work. In addition, the lack of a thermal blanket could make it difficult to irrigate crops. Calibrated irrigation is essential for crop success. A heat blanket allows the farmer to better control field irrigation. Inadequate irrigation can mean damaged or decreased production and this effectively means much less income in the farmer’s finances. One of the main disadvantages of not using a thermal blanket for crops is excessive weeds. Without a woven mesh, it is more difficult to control weed growth. These weeds can poison crops and cause them to produce a poor quality crop. This will affect the quality of what is produced which is what ultimately provides profit to the farmer.
Why use anti-cold woven mesh
There are many disadvantages of not using a woven netting for crop growth. These include, but are not limited to, increased vulnerability to adverse weather conditions, difficult to control irrigation, uncontrollable weeds, and decreased crop production. Therefore, it is advisable for a farmer to seriously consider using a thermal blanket to improve crop yields. Misuse of thermal netting in a crop can have adverse effects on crop yields. This is mainly due to the lack of temperature control, and therefore the lack of air quality inside the greenhouse. Without proper maintenance, the air inside the greenhouse becomes too warm, which hinders the expected growth of crops. Poor use of woven blanket can also contribute to diseases and pests, as they cannot withstand the incapacitating temperature that poor blanket use can cause.
One of the ways in which the misuse of woven netting can affect the crop is the loss of water in the soil, both in the soil and in the air. If the plastic film of the thermal blanket is broken, water can escape through it or sunlight can penetrate the greenhouse, which means that the soil is exposed to evaporation, leading to water loss. Poor use of woven mesh can also lead to overheating, which means that the air inside the greenhouse is much warmer than normal. This makes crops unable to grow properly and susceptible to diseases and pests. The heat disrupts the normal biological processes that help crops develop to their full potential. Moisture buildup inside the greenhouse can also be a major concern.
