In vegetable farming, bird consumption can lead to direct damage, failure and loss of quality. The risk is particularly high with young plants and crops with soft or just shaped fruits. Physical protection with Columba Plus offers a practical solution for outdoor vegetable cultivation. By covering the crop in time, the crop remains protected during vulnerable growth phases.
Columba Plus is a strong and lightweight pigeon net that is used as a physical barrier against birds. The net is UV-stabilized and suitable for use over larger areas in the open ground.
Important properties:
The open structure maintains light and air permeability, which is important for uniform crop development.
In vegetable production, birds focus on seeds, young plants and developing fruits. Damage occurs, among others, when:
Leaf crops cause damage to young leaves. In leguminous crops and maize, seeds or young shoots are affected.
By creating a physical barrier, damage is prevented without affecting the crop or the cultivation system. This makes it suitable for different crops.
Columba Plus can be used in vegetable cultivation in various ways:
Due to the light material, the crop remains minimal. The net is easy to install and remove.
In open field vegetable cultivation, the quality of the end product determines the yield. Bird feeding can cause damage to young plants, leafy crops and fruit vegetables in a short period of time. With Columba Plus, a sustainable and physical protection solution is chosen.
Timely use during vulnerable growth phases protects the crop, limits yield loss and maintains quality. This makes Columba Plus a targeted choice for future-proof vegetable cultivation.
