What are the Benefits of rain cover tarpaulins for cherry plants?

Rain can cause damage to cherries in a number of ways, including causing fruit splitting, rain cracking, promoting the growth of fungal diseases, and washing away protective fungicides.

Fruit rot is a common issue in cherry plantations, and can be caused by various fungal pathogens such as Monilinia laxa and Monilinia fructicola. These fungi thrive in moist conditions and can cause the fruit to rot while it is still on the tree or after it has been harvested.

To prevent fruit rot, cherry growers may add a protective cover (plastic rain shield) to the cherry, which helps protect it from rain and thus reduces the problem of fruit rot.

Studies have shown that the use of plastic tarpaulins can reduce the use of fungicides and prevent the happening of fruit rot.

Using orchard rain protection covers can help cherry farmers enjoy higher yields and better quality harvests.

How to Install and Use

Steps for installing the plastic rain shield on cherry plants

  1. Before customizing the fruit tree tent cover, you need to measure the size of the rain cloth your cherry orchard needs. Each piece of tarpaulin is fitted with stationary eyelets for you when it is made.
  2. Install brackets and cables for your cherry orchard to hold the tarpaulin in place.
  3. Open the rain cover. Stretch the bungee cords through the eyelets of the tarpaulin to cushion the heavy blow of the wind.
  4. And secure the cherry rain cover tarpaulins you need with the required accessories to the cables.

Steps for using a plastic rain shield

Check the cherry rain tarpaulin regularly and repair it in time when there is any damage.

The plastic rain shield can be tied up or rolled up during sunny weather to allow plants to photosynthesize freely, but don’t forget to roll down the plastic rain shield again when the rain comes or when the night comes, so that your cherry plants can be well protected.
