ISHS Acta Horticulturae 154: II International Symposium on Plastics in Mediterranean Countries

TEMPERATURE AND CARNATION YIELD IN PLASTIC AND GLASS COVERED GREENHOUSES

Authors:   S. Sargentini, S.B. Consorti, F. Tognoni, R. Tesi
Abstract:
An investigation on fuel consuption on carnation yield has been carried out.

Four greenhouses with different technical specification and different night temperatures has been used for this purpose.

Fuel consuption is proportional to the selected night temperature and tightness of the houses. Low night temperature is not always economical one as productivity may be drastically reduced, 5°C night temperature our experimental condition seem to be an economical one either for energy saving or carnations yield.
