Plasticulture brings together a set of sciences and techniques that contribute to the development of the uses of plastic materials in agricultural, livestock, forestry, and hydrobiological production systems, protecting crops from:

  • Adverse weather conditions

  • Rain

  • Frost

  • Diseases

  • Pests

  • Helps regulate temperature 

At DISAGRO, we have developed a line of plastic products that contribute to protecting, increasing production, and maximizing all resources, resulting in safe products.

Made of polypropylene, used for support or stakes for horticultural crops.

SHADE NETTING
DISAGRO® Saran

Thin and flexible nets made of small interwoven polyethylene filaments, available in various shapes, sizes, and textures.

These nets are made from plastic films, primarily high-density polyethylene (HDPE).

The application of the net provides controlled shade to crops, protects against sunlight, wind, and some extreme environmental changes such as hail.
