Greenhouse
Research Overview
Our state of the art Greenhouse facility, completed in 2006, features 4,200 square feet of growing space. The facility is divided into two identical, independently-controlled bays topped by a roof structure with a height of 14 feet at the truss to better enable the proper growth of corn plants. These two bays feature heating, cooling, shade curtains, growth lights, and roof vents, and are connected by an adjoining headhouse, which includes an outdoor weather station (providing sensor inputs for precipitation detection, solar readings, temperature, humidity, wind speed, and wind direction).
