CEA project
CEA project
Controlled environment agriculture (CEA) is becoming more popular with extreme climate events of variable weather patterns, drought, heat, and even saline fields to produce profitable produce. This current strawberry project is focused on which media can yield best for strawberry production in a greenhouse
Goal 1
Goal 1
Determine water use of strawberries inside controlled environment
Goal 2
Goal 2
Determine which media or substrate performs best for CEA strawberry production and if wind pollination is sufficient indoors
Goal 3
Goal 3
Determine heat tolerance and strawberry variety performance under heat stress and control mechanisms for higher yield
understanding field logistics
understanding field logistics
The south central region has extreme weather events providing strawberry yields 1.5lbs/plant which is lower than california and florida berry yields
making the transition from field to CEA
making the transition from field to CEA
Exploring the transition from traditional plasticulure field strawberry growth to controlled environment agriculture and how the transition could be make is part of our long term goalsÂ
