This document discusses greenhouse automation. It defines a greenhouse as a structure that allows sunlight in but keeps outside environmental factors out to provide optimal growing conditions. Greenhouse technology controls the environment for higher crop yields year-round. Various sensors can automate irrigation, temperature control, lighting, and other functions to make greenhouse management more efficient. While installation costs are high initially, automation can save time and resources long-term. The document concludes that greenhouse automation has the potential to revolutionize agricultural cultivation systems.

- 1. INDIRA GANDHI GOVT. ENGINEERING COLLEGE, SAGAR SEMINAR ON GREENHOUSE AUTOMATION SUBMITTED TO : PRESENTED BY: MR. BHUPENDRA ROHIT SHIVAM KUMAR SINGH
- 2. WHAT IS GREEN HOUSE?? • A Green House is a house with protection boundaries which allows only sunlight and no other outside environmental factor to enter. • A Green house has basically one purpose, that is to provide and maintain a growing environment that will result in optimum crop production at maximum yield.
- 3. WHAT IS GREENHOUSE TECHNOLOGY? • Green House technology provides a controlled and favorable environment for crop to grow and yield high in all the seasons. • Saves crop from cold in winters, from heat in summers and from rain in monsoon seasons. • Environments can be suitably modified as per the requirements of the crop.
- 4. HISTORY OF GREENHOUSE • The idea of growing plants in environmentally controlled areas has existed since Roman times. • The French botanist Charles Lucien Bonaparte is often credited with building the first practical modern greenhouse in Leiden, Holland, during the 1800s to grow medicinal tropical plants.
- 5. MECHANISM
- 6. WHY GREENHOUSE YIELDS MORE? • U.V. film does not allow harmful U.V. rays to enter the green house thus protecting the crop. • Inside environment remains under control . • Carbon dioxide released by the plants released in night is consumed by plants itself in the morning. Thus the plants get about 8-10% times more food than the open field condition . • Inside temperature is raised because of green house effect. Long wave (IR) radiations are absorbed and retained for longer time inside the Greenhouse.
- 7. COMPONENTS IN GREENHOUSE Green House components can be broadly divided into 3 main categories. • Structural Design. • Green House Covering. • Environmental Controls.
- 8. ADVANTAGES OF GREENHOUSE • Manipulation of Growing season. • Round the year production of most desired crop. • Higher production per unit area is obtained. • Higher value and higher quality crops can be grown. • Efficient use of Irrigation Water. • Infestation of pests and diseases is eliminated. • Nursery for all vegetable crops can be grown. • Drastic reduction in wastage of Fertilizers and Pesticides
- 11. . • Basically Greenhouse automation concept arises from the concept of automation . • How we can put and apply various techiniques to easily control and manage the various processes of Greenhouse Technology. • Thus, as the name suggests Greenhouse Automation states that controlling and managing the various processes via automation for better look and cost cutting.
- 12. BUT HOW THE GREENHOUSE AUTOMATION CONCEPT IS POSSIBLE??
- 13. It is possible by using various sensors that you have already used in past or you are already using or you are going to use in near future. Its quite easy , only thing is that you have to remember it. Because you know everything. Believe me!!!!
- 14. THESE SENSORS ARE: • Soil Moisture Detector and Automatic Irrigation System.
- 15. . • Automatic Electronic Temperature Indicator.
- 18. . • Automatic Curtain Opener and Closener.
- 20. IS THAT POSSIBLE??? CAN WE MAKE SUCH A GREENHOUSE WITH FULL OF INTERESTING DAILY USED TECHNOLOGIES????
- 21. ADVANTAGES AND DIS- ADVANTAGES There can be a huge number of dis-advantages like installation cost n many more but if we will be able to get into this we will be able to save a lot of time as well as money after that.
- 22. CONCLUSION For sure involving automation in Green house, which involves cultivation of crops throughout the year in a well establised condition is going to change the method of farming as well as the planting system. In short this concept is going to revolutionarize the entire cultivation system.
