Olmi De-Leafer for Vineyards

The Olmi vineyard deleafer ensures optimal grape development and can save up to 30% of time compared to manual harvesting. The air that’s produced hits the leaves around the grapes ensuring a gentle but effective leaf removing system for vines.

ADVANTAGES
The Olmi pneumatic deleafer allows for optimal grape development, increasing quality, resulting in improved product health and ultimately wine quality.

• Does not harm grapes during any period of use
• Olmi leaf removers do not work in contact with vegetation, it allows the machines to work in any kind of vineyard, system and even through zone netting.
• Short application times.

POST-FLOWERING

• Pulsating air cleans the grapes, assists removal of flowering residue and all impurities on grapes.
• Improves the penetration and effectiveness of treatments, consequently reducing the amount of treatments needed with considerable costs savings.
• Improves ventilation within the grapes, preventing the formation of moisture that is harmful for the fruit development.
• Prevents from Botrytis.
• Early stage leaf removal when the sun is weaker prevents grapes from sun burning.

IN PRE-HARVEST

• Facilitates manual harvesting with a saving of time of between 20 - 30%, while with mechanical harvesting it eliminates moisture in the fruiting area and so a greater cleanliness of the crop can be reached, also fungicides and other impurities in the tanks of the harvesters can be reduced. Even in this phase the defoliator does not harm the grapes.
