About
Research advances cost‑effective crop production in greenhouses and vertical farms by combining real‑time biofeedback lighting control with multispectral/fluorescence imaging for phenotyping and early stress detection, plus decision‑support models to reduce electricity use without sacrificing yield.
Lowering the target daily light integrals following days with excessive lighting can reduce lettuce production costs
