KUBO has develop a new organization of night cool for use in Ultra - Clima nursery . The forward-looking principle can cut back greenhouse temperature in climates with high-pitched Nox - prison term temperatures to the desired grade . This enables both increases in productivity and quality and year - circle growing . KUBO is expecting the system to result in a breakthrough for tropic and subtropical region of the humans , where horticulture is not yet possible .
Night - fourth dimension temperatures do not cool down down sufficiently in many farming countries in the public . Examples include the east coast and south of the US , the Chinese west sea-coast , Japan and South Korea . In these places , the temperature and comparative humidity remain in high spirits at night . High average daylight temperatures ensue in lose weight productiveness and quality . This also result in trouble with year - troll growing , a need that is in particular high in regions where ‘ local for local ’ growing charter place .
The exist pad and devotee system of rules , ordinarily used to cool greenhouses , is not sufficient when relative humidness is too high . That is why KUBO has been searching for a new type of night cooling system .
satisfactory night - sentence temperatureKUBO uses urine / air oestrus money changer for the cooling , which are integrated in the Ultra - Clima greenhouse air treatment building block . The screen system are close after sundown and the melody temperature in the nursery reduce bit by bit through the recirculation of the cooled greenhouse air . This enables growers to cut nighttime - clip nursery temperatures to an satisfactory degree . ‘ Despite the severe conditions outdoors , the crop remains in balance in the greenhouse and the grower retains optimal productiveness and caliber , ’ state Wouter Kuiper , KUBO CEO . An additional reward is that the system is not only worthy as night cooling , but can also be go during the day . Provided , of form , that this is economically feasible .
effect in practiceThe first two system are already in use in Ultra - Clima greenhouses in Japan and South Korea . The conception will also be installed this twelvemonth in nursery that are presently being constructed : one in Japan , two in South Korea and five in China . Ton Fransen from the similarly named advice delegacy that is supporting growers in Ultra - Clima greenhouses on behalf of KUBO has find out the significant effect of the system in practice . ‘ In Japan , Kunieda is the only rose nursery that uses this nighttime cooling . This enables the companionship to append roses of sufficient length and bud height throughout the yr . At a location such as this , the system provides the idealistic climate . ’
mature in tropic areasThe scheme can be used for all horticultural crops , including vegetable , fruit and ornamentals . Wouter : ‘ We also expect to be able to access new market where crop growing was fully or virtually out of the question until today , such as equatorial subtropical and tropic climate . ’
