How to grow crops under light abatement screens

Light abatement screens help growers comply with regulations and reduce energy consumption, but they also change the greenhouse climate. In this course, you’ll discover how to manage humidity, temperature and air movement to keep your crop performing at its best. This course is also included in the Plant Empowerment Full Membership.

Air movement and climate management

As more regions introduce regulations to reduce light emissions, light abatement screens have become an essential part of modern greenhouse production. Besides limiting light pollution, they also offer opportunities to reduce energy use. However, closing the screens also changes the greenhouse climate. Humidity rises, heat distribution changes and maintaining an active crop becomes more challenging.

In this course, Plant Empowerment specialists explain how to use light abatement screens as part of an integrated growing strategy, helping you balance climate, energy efficiency and plant activity.
