1. Why Heating is Important for Greenhouse Farming?
- Maintains optimal temperature for plant growth.
- Prevents cold stress and frost damage in winter.
- Improves crop yield and quality during cold seasons.
2. Common Greenhouse Heating Methods
Heating Method | Efficiency | Cost | Best For |
---|---|---|---|
Gas Heater | High | Medium | Medium-Large Greenhouses |
Electric Heater | Medium | Low-Medium | Small Greenhouses |
Biomass Heater | High | High | Sustainable Farming |
Solar Heating | Very High | High | Energy-Efficient Greenhouses |
3. Best Heating Strategy for Different Greenhouses
- Small Greenhouses → Electric or solar heating is cost-effective.
- Commercial Greenhouses → Gas or biomass heating provides stability.
- Sustainable Farms → Biomass or solar heating reduces long-term costs.
