Reduce POD SHatter loss

Mesh is a unique polymer that seals the seam. It is a simple, cost-effective solution that significantly reduces yield loss and increases profit. It tacks and protects the pod seam, reducing its natural tendency to split while still allowing the pod to expand, contract and mature normally.

Yield losses occur in-field through changes in weather, variable pod maturity and physical damage at harvest, which all result in shattered pods.

Mesh is recommended across Canola, Pulses, and Legumes.

Why it pays

Six ways Mesh protects your yield

shield 01

Boost shatter-resistant varieties.

Proven to protect yield even where a variety already carries pod-shatter resistance.

lock 02

Maintains pod integrity to harvest.

Minimises seed losses in the field and volunteers in next season's crop.

calendar_month 03

Longevity protection

Safeguards the crop to harvest, even if wet or windy weather delays combining.

compress 04

Fewer in-field losses.

Reduces losses from physical crop movement and from pod expansion and contraction.

storm 05

Support against adverse weather.

Greater protection from adverse weather when applied at the earlier timing.

agriculture 06

Protects the tramlines.

Applied early, the crop is gently laid and pliable, avoiding later wheeling damage.

03
How it works

From tank to seam

Step 01 · Tank
Mixes clean, sprays clean.

Add Mesh to the tank last and keep agitating.

Step 02 · Spray
Even coverage of the pods.

Applied at 1-1.5 L/ha in 100–250 L of water as a medium-quality spray, coating the pod surface.
*Never lower than 10% dilution

Step 03 · Seal
Tacks the pod seam.

The polymer bonds across the seam, reducing the pod's natural tendency to split under pressure.

Step 04 · Mature
Lets the pod finish.

Flexible enough to let pods expand, contract and ripen normally, with no effect on desiccation, maturity or seed quality.

Shatter tolerance · John Innes Centre

55% tougher than the nearest rival.

In independent shatter-tolerance testing, pods treated with Mesh needed far longer under pressure before splitting, recording a shatter tolerance 55% better than its nearest competitor.

Getting the timing right

The earlier window wins

Canola

BBCH 80–89

The optimum window is BBCH 80–82. Pods are green and bendy, roughly 8 weeks before harvest. Mesh can be applied any time from full-sized pods up to before they split (BBCH 89), standalone or co-applied with an approved glyphosate or diquat desiccant.

18 years of field trials

Proven, and still ahead

+360 kg/ha mean additional yield across the trial network; worth $252/ha at today's canola price.

Across our international networks over the last 18 years, Mesh has consistently performed, returning a mean average of 360 kg/ha additional yield.

Basic evaporation tests show why: where competitor polymers crack and leave little dry residue, Mesh forms a far greater volume of intact, crack-free film, supporting the physical integrity that seals a pod seam under pressure.
