Synopsis "Achieving Sustainable Greenhouse Cultivation (Burleigh Dodds Series in Agricultural Science) (in English)"
This collection provides a comprehensive review of key advances in greenhouse and other forms of protected and controlled environment cultivation.Chapters discuss developments in types of production systems: greenhouses, net houses, aquaponic and vertical farming systems. A particular focus is on ways of controlling the aerial environment, including lighting and atmosphere control, and on optimising root development, including growing media, irrigation and nutrient management. Chapters also summarise advances in systems monitoring and management, including the use of sensors, decision support systems and robotics to optimise efficiency.
