Controlling the Environment in Greenhouses Used for Tomato Production
Introduction Growing tomatoes in greenhouses allows producers to grow plants at a time when it would be impossible to grow outside because of the weather. The sole purpose of a greenhouse is to maintain an environment that promotes optimum production. Solar energy from the sun provides both sunlight and heat, but growers must provide a system that maintains the optimum growing environment in th...
متن کاملEconomic Evaluation of Artificial Lighting in Vegetable Greenhouses (Case Study: Cucumber Production in Hamadan Province)
Sunlight, as a natural resource, is an important factor in agriculture, which is supplied indefinitely and without any charge by the sun. But some phenomena such as cloudy weather or shortening the length of the day throughout the year, cause restrictions on access to this important source. This is very important for cultivation in controlled environments such as greenhouses, which usually prod...
متن کاملEvolving Greenhouses
To explore the space between the theories of the Diffusion of Innovations and Universal Darwinism, we first examine a case study of the history of the greenhouse horticulture sector of the Netherlands, comparing and contrasting the narrow focus of Diffusion of Innovations and the wider focus of Universal Darwinism. We then build an agent-based model using elements of both in order to test how w...
متن کاملCalculation of Foliage Mass and Foliage Area
Introduction In Finland, the forest canopies are the main source of the volatile organic compounds (VOC). These forests are representative of the boreal ones, and they cover about 80% of the total land area of the territory of Finland. The forests throughout the country are utilised commercially and managed regularly with the consequence that the natural tree species composition is much affecte...
متن کاملThe Passive Greenhouses
We are living in a great Greenhouse: our planet, the Earth. This sustainable system is almost closed, except the radiative energy received from the Sun. Understanding and respecting its principles is the only guaranty for a safe future of our species. The Greenhouse effect is a process by which a part of the incident solar energy is trapped by the lower atmosphere due to the action of some atmo...
