Protected Crop Production
Protected crop production refers to growing crops in controlled environments such as greenhouses, polytunnels, or shade nets to optimize growing conditions. This method helps protect crops from extreme weather, pests, and diseases while extending the growing season. By controlling factors such as temperature, humidity, and light, farmers can create ideal conditions for plant growth, leading to higher yields and better-quality produce. Protected crop production is particularly useful for high-value crops like tomatoes, peppers, and strawberries, which require specific conditions to thrive. It allows farmers to produce crops year-round, regardless of seasonal weather variations, and helps reduce the impact of climate change on agricultural productivity.
