NETTING MATERIAL

摘要

An agricultural netting material has a construction profile across the width of the netting in which one or more construction elements varies across the width of the netting, a construction element in a first region of at least 20 cm width of the netting being different to the construction element in a second region of at least 20 cm width of the netting, the construction element being one of a yarn thickness, a yarn width, a yarn transmittance, a yarn pigmentation, a yarn reflectance, a yarn absorbance, a netting aperture size, a netting construction pattern and a netting cover factor.

主权项

1. A netting material having a length dimension and a width dimension smaller, or much smaller, than the length dimension, the width of the netting material being at least 1 m and which has a construction profile across the width of the netting, wherein in the construction profile, one or more construction elements varies across the width of the netting, a construction element in a first region of at least 20 cm width of the netting being different to the construction element in a second region of at least 20 cm width of the netting, the construction element being one of yarn thickness, yarn width, yarn transmittance, yarn pigmentation, yarn reflectance, yarn absorbance, netting aperture size, netting construction pattern and netting cover factor, and wherein the first region has a higher shade factor than the second region, and either:
(i) each of said first and second regions comprise at least 10% of the width of the netting material, the first region is a centrally located region and the second region is a peripheral region along at least one side of the central region, or on opposing sides of the central region, or (ii) each of said first and second regions comprise at least 25% of the width of the netting material, and the first region is, or is located predominantly on, one side of the netting material between a longitudinal centre of the netting and one longitudinal edge of the netting, and the second region is another side, or is located predominantly on another side, of the netting material between the longitudinal centre of the netting and the other longitudinal edge of the netting.
