Banana is the largest fruit crop in Israel based on production, with 180,000 tons grown on a cultivation area of 3100 ha in 2019. Local selections of cv. 'Grand Naine' are responsible for 95% of banana production in Israel, due to their relatively short growing cycle, high fruit quality and high yields under limiting subtropical environmental conditions.

What impact does shade netting have on avocado production and fruit quality?
Losses in fruit for export resulting from wind and sunburn can be as high as 28% and 27% respectively. The shading provided by netting over a crop modulates the microclimate, allowing the environment to be more favourable for fruit production and for the reduction of quality defects.
