Greenhouse growing with CO2 goes green CO2 for crop growth: good for the environment, good for business

摘要

Fresh vegetables, salads and fruit crops such as tomatoes, cucumbers, capsicum peppers, lettuce and strawberries are extensively grown in commercial greenhouses in countries such as the Netherlands and New Zealand. In this environment, light, water, temperature, nutrient supply and carbon dioxide (CO2) levels are controlled to create growing conditions that optimise both crop yield and quality.
