The structure, composed of sturdy posts and reliable anchors, ensures stability and safety throughout the entire season.
As with all CarmoFarm projects, the priority is to offer efficient, long-lasting solutions tailored to the requirements of the crop, promoting consistent, high-quality production.
The protection of this apple orchard is based on a comprehensive system of anti-hail nets, designed to preserve the quality of the fruit in the face of adverse weather conditions.

ANTI-HAIL NETS: PROTECTION AND STABILITY FOR ORCHARDS
As part of this project carried out in 2024 for Canha AgroRural in Évora de Alcobaça, a protection system was installed that was designed to meet the specific needs of the apple orchard.
The netting creates a physical barrier over the crop, reducing the fruit’s direct exposure to hail. Correctly specifying the structure and the various fastening components is essential to ensure that the system remains functional and keeps pace with the orchard’s development.
A SOLUTION TAILORED TO FRUIT FARMING
Each project requires an analysis of the farm’s characteristics, from the layout of the land to the arrangement of the rows and the crop’s requirements. In this case, the solution was designed to provide protection for the orchard without compromising the operations required throughout the growing season.
In addition to providing protection against adverse weather conditions, a correctly installed structure should facilitate the management of the facility and ensure stable performance over time. The choice of materials and the quality of the installation are therefore key factors in the system’s durability.
The result is an integrated farm management solution, designed to safeguard production and contribute to safer and more efficient orchard management.
