– A multi-span greenhouse is a type of greenhouse structure made up of multiple connected spans or bays, forming a larger, continuous space.Unlike tunnel greenhouses, these connected spans share walls and roof sections, which increases the overall growing area and improves the efficiency of climate control, irrigation, and energy use.
Advantages of Multi-Span Greenhouses
Maximizes Growing Area: The continuous, open floor plan allows for more efficient use of space.
Enhanced Climate Control: Allows for uniform temperature, light, and humidity, reducing the stress on plants.
Higher Yield and Quality: With improved control, plants grow in optimal conditions, resulting in higher yield and better crop quality.
Cost-Effective for Large-Scale Operations: Reduces heating and cooling costs per unit area, especially beneficial for larger operations.
-Disadvantages compared to tunnel greenhouses:
– Higher production and purchase costs.
– Relatively complex structure with a larger variety of main materials and components, making installation more challenging.
– Longer construction period.
Application：
– Multi-span greenhouses are commonly used for commercial agriculture as they allow for better control of environmental factors like temperature, humidity, and light.
