Physical barriers
over crops at
vulnerable periods
For high value crops grown on a small scale only, physical barriers can be effective. Netting is the most effective barrier, although

should be set at varying heights and spacing to break up flight lines

Would that not help Mr Allotment Muskett ?
Not really practical in my opinion for fields that are close to 1 km in length and over 500 metres wide though is it?
