  • Patent number: 11547061
    Abstract: A photo-selective light spectrum-modifying net for use in citrus fruit production, the net comprising a woven array of parallel and mutually spaced first threads and an array of parallel and mutually spaced second threads, the second threads being inclined to the first threads to define an array of openings between the first and second threads, wherein the first threads are uncolored and composed of a first polymer which is selected from a polymer incorporating a white pigment or dye, a transparent polymer or a translucent polymer, and the second threads are colored red and composed of a second polymer which incorporates a red pigment or dye, the second threads being adapted to transmit, scatter and reflect electromagnetic radiation in the wavelength range of from 640 to 680 nm. Also disclosed is a method of producing citrus fruit using the net.

  • Publication number: 20220124988
    Abstract: Provided herein are devices, systems, and methods for sunlight delivery, shoot positioning, canopy division, positioning fruit into distinct zones, managing fruit maturity and quality, rain, wind, and hail protection, and reducing canopy management and harvest labor of one or more plants on a trellis comprising one or more panels and a standoff, wherein the panels divide the growth of plant shoots on the trellis, thereby modifying growth or development of the plants. In some embodiments, the panels collect light energy and direct the collected light energy to the plants, thereby modifying growth or development of the plants and their producing of fruit.

  • Publication number: 20020056225
    Abstract: Disclosed is a novel method for growing plants, including shade plants and sun plants. According to the invented method, plants are provided with light that includes indirect light and direct light, the ratio therebetween is greater than in natural light, at least in the PAR region. Such light may be provided to the plants by growing them under suitable shade nets. Such nets are typically translucent.
