This course describes the component parts of a typical production greenhouse and will focus on the set-up and organization of the greenhouse. This includes greenhouse design and how design affects the greenhouse environment with respect to ventilation, temperature control, light and heat loss. Designing greenhouse facilities for labour efficiency, space utilization, energy and water use efficiency will also be examined.
