Agriculture
Agriculture is one of the most important fields in the use of agricultural netting due to its characteristics of protecting crops from insects and atmospheric phenomena such as hail, wind and torrential rains.
We manufacture a wide range of agricultural nets in different densities according to the needs of the crop.

Olive bales / Bales of olives
When the olive harvesting season arrives, using the traditional system, it is necessary to use olive harvesting blankets or bales. The origin of RÁBITA AGROTEXTIL began with the design and manufacture of olive blankets.
OTHER USES
– Olives are harvested using the traditional system, either for green olives or for olives destined for the oil mill.
– Strong stitched edges to facilitate the harvesting process.
– It is also used for harvesting almonds, walnuts, chestnuts and other fruits.
– Placement on the floor for drying plums, apricots, grapes, figs and tomatoes.
– System to carry out the sun-roasting and subsequent raisining of grapes of the Pedro Ximenez variety. In this way, the grapes are dried and dehydrated in the sun, prior to the production of the sweet Pedro Ximenez wines.
– Possibility of using ringed blankets for loading and unloading of harvested olives on trailers.
– Some companies that require greater care in olive harvesting, use higher density blankets (Rabitainsectproof 22 x 10).
