LED lighting plant factory technology development trend

In recent years, it has also begun to introduce agricultural lighting applications. Plant factories that use LED light sources and environmental control characteristics have become niche markets that have been slashed by major manufacturers in recent years. Combining LED lighting will allow harvesting of crops, plants or flowers. Shortening, combined with proper environmental control, can not only prevent pests, but also avoid the use of pesticides or reduce the use of pesticides, ensure food safety, and increase the added value of agricultural products. The concept niche of plant factories will have the opportunity to bring new solutions to many agricultural problems such as narrow populations and pollution. Recently, with the gradual maturity of LED lighting applications in public spaces and commercial spaces, plant factories have become a new market for European and American Taiwanese companies to actively enter, especially the Chinese local government's strategy of adopting plant factories as their political achievements. Attracting factories is eager to try and win local government subsidies.

With the maturity of LED lighting applications, LED lighting has become an indispensable part of the plant factory. Compared with traditional halogen lamps and fluorescent tubes, LED light sources are not only environmentally friendly, but also have the advantages of power saving. For the user, the controllability of the LED light source brings more advantages to agricultural planting. According to industry experts, the light quality and light quantity of the LED light source can be controlled. It can be matched with LED light sources of different wavelengths for different varieties and planting types. The light quantity can also be supplemented with the length of sunshine. In addition, the effect of enhancing specific wavelengths cannot be underestimated. Compared with traditional light sources, LEDs are more capable of utilizing different plants to require different specific wavelengths to supplement energy. However, compared with sunlight, LED energy is still slightly inferior, but because there is no sunlight at night, the supplement and enhancement of LED light source is one of the reasons that can shorten the production period of plants.
