The workshop includes
- Global Perspectives: Gain insights into greenhouse systems and crop yield in diverse climatic regions worldwide.
- Technical Sessions: Explore discussions on crucial covering and screen material properties, material performance evaluation, and the impact of diffuse light on production increase.
- Cutting-Edge Research: Discover integral greenhouse concepts, including experiments with ETFE greenhouse strawberries, Winterlight Greenhouse cucumbers, and KAS20230 anthurium under low-e.
- Networking Opportunities: Engage in valuable networking during lunch and the network drinks session.
