Climate control in greenhouses
An ideal environment for optimal growth
Climate control in greenhouses is crucial to the success of any crop. Environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, ventilation, heating and lighting have a direct impact on plant growth, health and productivity. Precise control of these factors allows farmers to create an ideal environment for each type of crop, maximizing its potential and minimizing risks.
Automatic, smart and easy-to-use systems
We offer advanced, intelligent and easy-to-use automatic climate control systems that provide a wide range of functions to manage the environment within greenhouses. These systems are designed to enable the progressive expansion of greenhouse operations, both in scale and complexity, while making it easier for operators to adopt and master new functionalities. Our climate computers are specifically designed to optimize the use of scarce resources, such as energy and water, allowing farmers to achieve harvests efficiently and sustainably.
Climate control systems that can be used in greenhouses:
Temperature and humidity control
There are various systems to control the temperature and humidity inside the greenhouse, such as fans, heaters, humidifiers and dehumidifiers. These systems can be manual or automatic, and are programmed to maintain environmental conditions within an optimal range for each stage of crop development.
Ventilation
Ventilation is essential to renew the air inside the greenhouse, remove excess moisture and CO2, and prevent heat buildup. Natural or mechanical fans can be used to control ventilation, and their operation can be manual or automatic.
Heating
Heating is necessary to maintain the appropriate temperature during cold months or in areas with temperate climates. Different heating systems can be used, such as gas or diesel boilers, electric heaters or solar energy systems.
Lightning
Artificial lighting may be necessary to supplement natural light and extend daylight hours, especially in winter crops or in areas with little sunlight. There are different types of low consumption LED lamps that are ideal for use in greenhouses.
Benefits of having climate control in your greenhouse:
It allows you to create an ideal environment for each type of crop, which translates into rapid and uniform growth, greater production and better quality. It also helps optimize the use of water, fertilizers and energy, resulting in significant savings. Finally, adequate levels of temperature, humidity and ventilation help prevent the appearance of pests and diseases.
- Crop growth optimization
- Get healthier and stronger plants
- You can improve the flavor of some types of vegetables
Climate control sensors
One of the most important parts of climate control environments in greenhouses are the sensors, which are the devices that, in most cases, collect the information necessary for management software, artificial intelligence or head growers. make decisions regarding values such as irrigation, humidity, ventilation, etc. Below we tell you everything you need to know about sensorization in greenhouses.
Sensorization in greenhouses has become a fundamental tool for modern agriculture. This technology allows real-time data to be collected on various environmental and soil parameters, giving farmers an accurate and complete view of the status of their crops.
Greenhouse sensorization is essential for modern agriculture by allowing farmers to obtain accurate real-time data on environmental and soil parameters such as temperature, humidity, light and nutrients. This facilitates continuous monitoring and early detection of problems, optimizing management decisions and maximizing agricultural productivity. By using different types of sensors, such as climate, soil moisture and nutrient sensors, critical tasks such as irrigation and ventilation are automated, leading to significant cost savings and an increase in the quality and quantity of the production. Greenhouse sensorization offers a comprehensive solution to improve farm efficiency and performance, while ensuring compliance with regulations and legal requirements.
Sensors in greenhouses allow constant monitoring of environmental and soil conditions, providing key data for making effective agricultural decisions. From optimizing irrigation to precise fertilization, sensors automate crucial processes and reduce operating costs. By measuring parameters such as soil moisture, nutrients and solar radiation, farmers can improve the productivity and quality of their crops, while ensuring product traceability and meeting regulatory standards. In summary, sensorization in greenhouses is an essential tool to maximize the performance and profitability of agricultural operations, promoting more efficient, sustainable agriculture in line with the demands of the current market.
