Dew yields were collected daily for one year. Ten dew collectors with four different plastic foils were setup in the experimental field. The cumulated dew yields ranged from 18.9 to 25.3 mm. The greatest cumulated dew yields were 25.3 mm (nightly mean 0.096 mm) and 24.3 mm (nightly mean 0.093) measured with PVC and OPUR coate...
