Huete Greenhouses has completed the second phase of the remodeling project of a glass greenhouse in northern Spain for the company Planasa. It has been installed on a hectare designated for raspberry cultivation. This ambitious project includes technological and structural improvements that will increase its efficiency and agricultural performance.

Pest control nets have been installed on the windows to ensure a protected environment against insects and other pests, thus reducing the need for pesticides and improving plant health. In addition, traffic within the greenhouse has been optimized with new anterooms, facilitating the movement of people and equipment, improving logistics, and reducing the risk of cross-contamination.

Moving air will be key to maintaining an optimal environment. Horizontal air recirculators in the anterooms and vertical recirculators inside the greenhouseThese devices will create active microclimates, reducing humidity and optimizing energy costs by improving air distribution. In addition, a high-pressure misting system, known as the Fog System, will be installed to maintain optimal humidity conditions for raspberry cultivation, helping to control temperature and reducing water stress on the plants.

Grow tables will also play a crucial role in this remodeling. They have been used sliding trays with microtunnel, which will improve the system's climate control and efficiency, allowing for more precise management of the microclimate around the plants. Regarding heating, a new boiler and modulating gas burner with overhead tubes have been implemented, providing efficient and uniform heating, crucial for the plants' acclimatization areas.

Irrigation and water control have been optimized with the installation of pressure groups, irrigation carts, and micro-sprinkler systems. These systems will ensure precise and efficient irrigation, optimizing water use and ensuring that plants receive adequate water. the exact amount of water needed. Additionally, electrical and climate control have been enhanced with new switchboards and advanced sensors, enabling more effective automation and response to environmental conditions.

Complementary infrastructure includes a new cutting and planting room, as well as a cold storage room, ensuring the quality of the final product and providing adequate spaces for handling and storing the raspberries.

This project is carefully designed to maximize productivity, minimize environmental impact, and facilitate crop management. An efficient greenhouse is one of the keys to agricultural success.
