Studies on environmental control of greenhouse for crop production
Author(s): Jyoti Ranjan Rath and MK Ghosal
Abstract: The design of a greenhouse mainly depends on the type of plants to be grown in the greenhouse, the light and heat requirements of plants, season of crop cultivation, desired degree of automation, topography, climate and mode of business. Environmental control can be achieved if greenhouse is designed accordingly by considering the optimum responses of the crop. Since the natural environment and the input availability may not be optimum as a place for proper growth, the controlled environment greenhouse is the right approach for maximising productivity. This paper elucidates the number of structural and operational design as well as the optimum level of environmental parameters for enhancing productivity in an energy efficient and economically viable solar greenhouse.
