Diffuse glass used in greenhouses can increase crop yields

Transparent glass and low-iron glass are often used in greenhouses. Due to the greenhouse structure and lighting, more and more farmers choose diffused glass in the newly built greenhouse glass. There is no shadow and the light distribution in the greenhouse is more even. , So the height of the plant is more uniform. In addition, there is no direct radiation to crops, and even the smallest sunlight is optimally distributed, making full use of the available light. Because of this advantage, the unit production efficiency is about 10% higher than other ordinary greenhouses.

Diffuse glass used in greenhouses can increase crop yields

The greenhouse uses diffused glass, and the unit production efficiency is about 10% higher than that of the ordinary greenhouse. Studies have found that the haze factors and light transmittance changes of diffused glass or diffuser coating affect the growth and production of tomatoes. The haze coefficient is 45%, 62% and 71%, the light transmittance is equal to or greater than the diffuse glass of the standard glass, and the influence of the commercial coated standard glass with the haze coefficient of 50% and 6% will be the same as the transmittance of the standard glass. Compare the transmittance of standard glass.

The effects of diffuse light on light interception, crop morphology, photosynthesis and growth were measured and analyzed. The light penetrates deeper into the crop, resulting in higher photosynthetic capacity in the lower canopy, but only in winter. Compared with standard glass or coated glass, tomatoes grown under diffused glass have stronger reproduction ability and are more transferred to fruit production than vegetative growth. The results show that both diffuse glass and anti-reflective coating will increase the yield of fruits and vegetables, so more and more growers and greenhouse designers choose diffuse glass with antireflection coating.
