Equipments needed

In case of permanent polyhouse structure steel and fiber made glass are galvanised hallow pipe-having glass or transparent polythene sheet structure is needed. For small farmers they can build up the polyhouse they require bamboo structure on which polythene sheet is used for cover purpose. For irrigation facility sprinkler irrigation unit is needed, while for controlling the air temperature ventilators are required.

Roof of Polyhouse

In case of construction of polyhouse plastic film, nylon, acralyc, vinyl, polycarbonate and polyethylene film can be used for the roof purpose. At present among the available polyfilm, use of I.P.C.L Baroda (Gujarat) made 200 microns or 800 gauge thickness ultraviolet protective film is considered as a better for polyhouse use. The framework of polyhouse should be made of G.I. pipe. For the construction of polyhouse following equipments are required:
