The content is focused on plastic greenhouses for vegetable growing but includes cross references to glasshouses, high-tech environmental control methods and other cultivation systems when these are needed to fill some gaps and to justify the basic concepts. The major attention is on the principles and techniques of greenhouse technology and management. The book also deals with integrated production, crop physiology, soilless cultivation, irrigation and fertilization, plant protection, postharvest, economics, marketing and production strategies UR - https://dx.doi.org/10.1079/9781780641034.0000 ER -
