CROP PROTECTION NETTING
First Claim
1. Crop protection netting having a greater length than width and which is of a knitted mesh construction, knitted such that at yarn intersections in the netting multiple yarns of which the netting is formed are knitted around each other to define the netting mesh apertures so that the netting is stretchable in multiple directions, and wherein connecting yarn portions between said yarn intersections extend substantially linearly between intersections, and wherein:
- at least one of the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed comprises a tape, and/orin addition to the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed (whether comprising a tape as above or otherwise) the netting also comprises multiple yarns or tapes extending through the netting (as a ‘
lay-in’
) woven through the mesh apertures and/or around intersections of the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed.

Abstract
Crop protection netting is of a knitted mesh construction, knitted such that at yarn intersections in the netting multiple yarns of which the netting is formed are knitted around each other to define the netting mesh apertures so that the netting is stretchable in multiple directions, and wherein connecting yarn portions between said yarn intersections extend substantially linearly between intersections, and wherein at least one of the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed comprises a tape, and/or in addition to the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed (whether comprising a tape as above or otherwise) the netting also comprises multiple yarns or tapes extending through the netting (as a ‘lay-in’) woven through the mesh apertures and/or around intersections of the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed.

45. Crop protection netting having a greater length than width and which is of a knitted mesh construction, knitted from multiple yarns extending along a length of the netting and following an approximate zig-zag path along the length of the netting, looping at each intersection in the netting comprising the yarn, to one side and then to another side, and wherein:
-
at least one of the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed comprises a tape, and/or in addition to the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed (whether comprising a tape as above or otherwise) the netting also comprises multiple yarns or tapes extending through the netting (as a ‘
lay-in’
) woven through the mesh apertures and/or around intersections of the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed. - View Dependent Claims (47, 48, 49)

50. Crop protection netting having a greater length than width and which is of a knitted mesh construction, knitted such that at yarn intersections in the netting multiple yarns of which the netting is formed are looped around each other to define the netting mesh apertures so that the netting is stretchable in multiple directions, and wherein connecting yarn portions between said yarn intersections extend substantially linearly between intersections, each intersection being formed by knitting together of three yarn parts passing through the intersection:
-
a first yarn which enters the intersection along a first axis and exits the intersection along the same first axis, so that a first connecting portion to a first adjacent intersection comprises adjacent lengths of the same yarn, a second yarn which enters the intersection along a second axis, passes through the loop within the intersection of the first yarn, and extends to and returns from a second adjacent intersection along a third axis so that a second connecting portion to that adjacent intersection comprises adjacent lengths of the same yarn, and exits the intersection along a fourth axis, and a third yarn which enters the intersection along the second axis so that a third connecting portion from a third adjacent intersection comprises portions of both the second and third yarns, passes through the loop in the intersection of the first yarn, and exits the intersection along fourth axis with the second yarn, so that a fourth connecting portion to a fourth adjacent intersection comprises portions of both the second and third yarns, and wherein; at least one of the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed comprises a tape, and/or in addition to the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed (whether comprising a tape as above or otherwise) the netting also comprises multiple yarns or tapes extending through the netting (as a ‘
lay-in’
) woven through the mesh apertures and/or around intersections of the multiple yarns of which the netting is formed.- View Dependent Claims (51, 52, 53, 54)
