A more narrow clip makes it easier for cucumber and pepper growers to use Agrifast's Tomsystem, the electric system to bind high wire crops with a metal clip. "The system was officially designed for tomatoes, so the diameter was 21-22 mm. The new ring has a 15 mm diameter, suited for cucumbers and peppers", says Alberto Lizarraga with Agrifast.
