Protected cultivation is the modification of the natural environment to achieve optimum plant growth. Modifications can be made to both the aerial and root environments to increase crop yields, extend the growing season and permit plant growth during periods of the year not commonly used to grow open field crops.
Protected cultivation/Greenhouse technology has been in use for crop production for more than fifty countries all over the world. China is believed to have adopted plastic greenhouse concept to a great extent. Japan, with about 42,000 ha. (hectare) under plastic and glass cover land holdings with shorter growing season in Holland and Japan have been the reason behind adopting Protected cultivation /greenhouse for intensive crop production.
