Material used
- Polyhouse is the construction under
controlled environment.
- The polyhouse can be made of
transparent, tight, cheap and flexible polythene.
- In these houses vegetables and other
crops can be grown in any season of the year depending upon their requirement, because
temperature and humidity can easily be controlled in Polyhouses.
- Polythene presents the thermal
radiation, which increases the temperature and energy and thus helps in the process of
photosynthesis. It is well established that for the production of energy vegetable, fruits
and flower crop, the polyhouses are constructed with the help of ultraviolet plastic
sheets, so that they may last for more than 5 years.
- The structure is covered with
1501-micron thick plastic sheet. The structure is prepared with the bamboos or iron pipes.
- Iron pipe structure is costly but more
durable than bamboo.
