Objectif(s): to examine a new method for producing horticultural crops on a year round basis in areas North of 60; to build a prototype device to collect and transmit photosynthectically active radiation via fiber optic cables; to evaluate the device for irradiating plants grown in an opaque, insulated structure in Norman Wells, NWT
Description du projet: Mr. Gene Hachey and his team will be examining a new method for producing horticultural crops on a year round basis in areas North of 60. The project will build a prototype light collection and transmission device and will evaluate the potential for irradiating horticultural crops grown in an opaque, insulated structure such as a green house.
