Project

Yield increase through controlled far-red lighting in the cultivation of tomato, cucumber and leafy crops (LED FR)

The global objective of this project is to accelerate the transition from lighted crops to full LED lighting systems. LED FR wants to stimulate the transition process through a two-pronged approach: via an interactive light platform, growers develop the necessary competences to make the right investment decision and to be able to implement the light strategies developed (by the project).Research into the control light far red is the lever to realize an optimal cultivation system under full LED.
