HEAT AND LIGHT REQUIREMENTS OF VEGETABLE PLANTS

Abstract

This paper addresses to the problem of knowledge requirements of each vegetable species to environmental factors (heat and light), which is of particular importance because the technology used for their control can intervene in closely aligned with requirements of different vegetable species. Although vegetable growing is one of the oldest human occupations, it has developed in modern times, because technological progress, thereby strengthening the independent science that deals with the peculiarities of agricultural plant culture. This was the result of vegetable crops in protected areas having the climate controlled, which allows providing appropriate conditions for plant growth in out of vegetables season. The practice of modern technology, low pollution risk and low specific energy consumption, it tries increased productivity, which can benefit from economic point of view.
