Powerful LED plant lighting
When people walk into the agricultural and rural exhibition area, they can see a colorful transparent glass house from a distance, which is planted with rice of different heights. Under the illumination of different colors of light, the rice is particularly vibrant. This glass room is the exhibition project "Unmanned Plant Factory Rice Breeding Accelerator" brought by the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
This technology is an important attempt to solve the problem of breeding and food security in an industrialized way. What is different from traditional field production is that our technology is carried out in a completely artificial environment, and we can fully control it, including light, temperature, humidity and some nutrients.
Experts say that through years of scientific research, they have studied some of the mechanisms of environmental regulation of the rapid reproduction of rice. The growth cycle of rice grown in the unmanned plant factory they developed will be shortened by half compared with the harvest cycle of rice grown in ordinary fields, and it can be harvested in 60 days. This technology reduces the dependence on land area and can also greatly increase the yield per mu.
Yang Qichang, researcher at the Institute of Urban Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences: This technology is also an international frontier and an important direction for global breakthroughs. It can provide future breeding scientists with a very important means to make it (rice) in the breeding accelerator. Under the conditions, the breeding speed of 1 year was increased from the original 2 generations to 6 generations. Therefore, the breeding speed of wheat, rice, corn, soybean and other crops will be greatly improved in the future, providing an important technical reserve for future food security.
In recent years, driven by policies, North American LED plant lighting has been expanded into the recreational marijuana and medical marijuana cultivation markets. Coupled with the frequent changes in extreme weather and the epidemic, the importance of consumers on food safety and the production and supply of localized crops has become increasingly prominent, thus driving agricultural farmers' market demand for leafy vegetables, strawberries, tomatoes and other crops. LED plant lighting has become a trend in the industry, attracting industry companies such as Philips Lighting, Sanan Optoelectronics, and Songsheng Co., Ltd. to make arrangements. ENELTEC, a leading enterprise in the LED industry, actively participated in it and made great efforts to promote the industrialization of plant lighting in the field of pasture.
In this case, in order to standardize and promote the development of the field of plant lighting, the Shenzhen Lighting and Display Engineering Industry Association plans to join the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Tsinghua University, Peking University and other institutions to initiate the establishment of a plant factory professional committee. Promote the innovative development of plant factory light environment with lighting technology, build a platform for mutual communication, exchange, discussion, and cooperation in the field of plant factory light environment, and continuously promote the development of plant lighting.
