AGRICULTURAL PROTECTION STRUCTURE
20230094416 · 2023-03-30 · ·

A modular agricultural protection structure may be constructed from vertical poles anchored in the ground, and beams and cross-beams welded to the top of the poles to form a top surface of the module. Load support structures may be welded to the beams, cross-beams, and poles, at regular intervals. Cables may be attached to the load bearing structures and used to support netting. A cable and pulley system may be included to retract the netting from over the top surface during climate weather in order for the plants to receive more sunlight. High quality/high strength materials and welding techniques may be used to provide protection even against several feet of snow accumulation without significant sagging of the netting. Clips may be attached between the cables and the netting at different locations on the top surface of the structure to further decrease sagging of the netting.
