Polyhouse farming involves covering crop fields with transparent polyethene sheets. Nutrients are dissolved in water and delivered to plants via drip irrigation.
Polyhouse farming can significantly boost crop yield up to 10-12 times. Yield relies on factors like nutrient, pest, and disease management, environmental conditions, and biological factors.
Polyhouse technology offers effective protection for crops from pests and diseases. By acting as a barrier, polyhouses reduce the exposure of crops to pests and diseases, shielding them from potential harm.
Polyhouse technique extends growing seasons by providing controlled conditions and shielding crops from extreme weather. You get increased yield and income, ensuring year-round cultivation and sustainability.
This helps in conserving water by reducing evaporation, optimising irrigation, and preventing water runoff. Polyhouse technique shields crops, ensuring efficient water usage, vital for agriculture.
Equipment in polyhouses adjusts humidity, temperature, and airflow. This helps plants grow in areas with unfavorable conditions. It keeps temperatures below 30°C, supporting crop growth.
