ISHS Acta Horticulturae 312: European Seminar New Technologies for the Rational Use of Energy in Greenhouse Horticulture in Northern Europe

A 'SPEAKING PLANT SYSTEM' APPROACH FOR OPTIMISING THE GREENHOUSE CLIMATE

Authors:   H. Huygens, P. Vandecasteele
Abstract:
Technical improvements and progress in information technology enable an efficient control of the greenhouse climate. Set points for climatic factors as light, heat CO2 and humidity are most often obtained from preliminary growth experiments or plant growth models but are not based upon the actual plant response. Consequently sub-and supra-optimal climatic conditions for plant growth in a greenhouse are detected far to late or never.
