Introduction
The greenhouse industry in our country is vibrant and dynamic. Technological innovations and economic prosperity have driven the greenhouse industry to new heights of productivity and popularity. A business whose market of old was nearly confined to cut, or fresh flowers now produces huge stocks of interior foliage plants, potted flowering plants such as poinsettias, and a burgeoning array of annual and perennial flower crops for garden use. Industry niches exist for large growers producing generic crops in volume and small growers specializing in superior quality, new market introductions, and low-volume specialty crops. The greenhouse industry offers a wide variety of career opportunities ranging from wholesale and retail production companies, allied supply and facilities companies, private and public greenhouse-oriented associations, educational services, public gardens, institutions of higher education, horticultural and other research firms, publishers, etc. This course will provide an introduction to greenhouse design and management technologies focusing on the types, locating and installation, outfitting, and operation of greenhouses with references to other similar structures. The subject of greenhouse operations will focus on control of the greenhouse growing environment. A review of the hardware, materials, and methods for controlling the greenhouse environment will be included.
Objectives
- Discuss types of growing structures, covering materials, heating and cooling as well as maintenance of the structure.
- Discuss environmental factors in the greenhouse and how they can be manipulated so that optimum plant growth will result.
- Discuss environmental control, energy conservation and efficient space utilization.
- Develop some of the skills needed to work in a production greenhouse.
- Become familiar with greenhouse practices by growing poinsettias during the fall semester.
Training Methodology
The training methodology is interactive with group exercises and is suitable for all employees involved in functions management. The pace and level of the training workshop is customized to the understanding of the delegates.
