Adaptive Management Framework for Evaluating and Adjusting Microclimate Parameters in Tropical Greenhouse Crop Production Systems

Abstract: High operational costs of greenhouse production in hot and humid climate condition due to the initial investments on structure, equipment, and energy necessitate practicing advanced techniques for more efficient use of available resources. This chapter describes design and concepts of an adaptive management framework for evaluating and adjusting optimality degrees and comfort ratios of microclimate parameters, as well as predicting the expected yield in greenhouse cultivation of tomato. A systematic approach i… Show more

“…The optimal range for air temperature inside the canopy is recommended to be between 20 and 22°C (Jones, 2013). Results of simulation with an adaptive management framework (Shamshiri et al, 2017a) and the TOMGRO model (Jones et al, 1999) are consistent with these findings, showing that for hot and humid tropical climates, the lower and upper marginal borders of air temperature for germination is 16 and 30°C, for maximum yield 20 and 25°C, and for growth development 12 and 30°C. It is suggested that the lowest tolerable and optimum air temperature should be, respectively, kept at 7 and 22°C for the rate of leaf ap pearance, the rate of truss appearance and the rate of progress (Adams et al, 2001).…”

“…The knowledge behind the plots of Figs 2 and 3, and the optimal and failure microclimate values (Table 4), are condensed from an extensive peer reviewed scientific published research on greenhouse cultivation of tomato and physiology, with the goal of simultaneously achieving high yield and high-quality fruit. A more in-depth analysis and practical examples of this DSS are presented by Shamshiri et al (2017a) via an adaptive management framework.…”

“…It has been shown that a greenhouse design for tropical lowlands that benefits from high natural ventilation rates can efficiently keep the temperature and humidity like the outside climate, which has been shown to be 60%-75% optimal for tomato growth [21] . The potential of a successful production can be higher in a naturally ventilation greenhouse than cultivating outdoors or in a traditional plastic covered greenhouse [22,23] . Focusing this study solely on drying application, Figure 1 presents the influence of high drying temperature on the quality of wheat grains which clearly shows the damage in wheat quality.…”

“…The demand for off-season cultivation of fruits and vegetables require different aspects of automation and robotics in closed-field plant production environments like greenhouses [1]. Modern greenhouse bioproduction systems are required to exhibit integration of automation, biological culture practices, and control systems through the concept of Automation-Culture-Environmentoriented SYStems analysis (ACESYS) as defined in [2,3]. The growth condition for Solanaceae vegetables in the greenhouse provides the leeway for the growth of other plants as well.…”
