Green House Benefits

GREATER PLANT DENSITY

Plants can be moved as they grow. Use of a growth room for germination and seedling production and the spacing of certain crops in the greenhouse decreases the average area needed per plant over conventional soil production.

HIGHER YIELDS

Reports of higher yields and better quality are common although equal yields should be able to be obtained from a conventional cropping system.

LESS WATER CONSUMPTION

In methods where the root system is contained in a closed trough or tube, less evaporation occurs and water consumption is reduced.
