Poly Tunnel

Poly Tunnels are basically naturally ventilated climate controlled. Jain Poly Tunnels have a variety of applications, the majority being, growing of vegetables, floriculture, planting material acclimatization, fruit crop growing for export market.

Jain Poly Tunnels are built of a Pre-galvanized Tubular Structure wherein crops are grown under a favorable controlled environment and other conditions viz. temperature, humidity, light intensity, ventilation, soil media, disease control, irrigation, Fertigation and other agronomical practices throughout the season irrespective of the natural conditions outside.

In conventional Agronomical practices, the crops are being grown / cultivated in the open field under natural conditions where the crops are more susceptible to sudden changes in climate i.e. temperature, humidity, light intensity, photo period and other conditions due to which the quality, yield of a particular crop can get affected and may be decreased.

ain Poly Tunnels are available in different sizes and constructed as per customer requirement. The sizes vary from as small as 96 Sq. M to 500 Sq M and more.

The degree of sophistication also varies from a simple Poly Tunnel with polyethylene film covering to highly sophisticated, fully automated drip and foggers systems, full scale computerized (fully automated) systems.

Special Features

Components of Jain Poly Tunnel

Advantages of Jain Poly Tunnel

Yield increases by 5 - 10 times or even more.
Uniform and better quality
Reduction in labour cost
Less fertilizer requirement, thus reduction in fertilizer cost.
Low water requirement thus saving in water.
Less chances of disease attack, thus reduction in disease control cost.
Higher Efficiency of Water & Fertilizer Use.
Cultivation in problematic topography.
Cultivation in problematic soil conditions.
Cultivation in problematic climate conditions.
Requires less area to get maximum yield and benefits.
Easy to operate, maintain & control.

Most of the time the owner prefers Manually Controlled System or Semi Automatic Controlled System because of low investment. But in such type of Control Systems it requires a lot of attention and care. Also it is very difficult and cumbersome to maintain uniform environment inside the Poly Tunnel. Ultimately this affects crop production, non uniform growth, low quality of the crop.

Fully Computerized Control System

Jain Computerized Control System is the solution to come over this problem and to maximize returns. Computer provides a faster and precise operation in the Poly house. Also it stores, displays and prints the Poly house information as needed. Computer can do the following operations as per the pre-scheduled programme:

Starting and closing of Micro Irrigation System.
Irrigation can be operated on time base/ volume base/ sensor base
Application of Liquid Fertilizer or Water Soluble Fertilizer (N:P:K) and other Nutrients to the plant.
Operation of Foggers/ Misting System as required.
Opening and closing of ventilators and side wall roll up curtains as needed.
Operation of shading net / Thermal screen.
Operation of air circulation fan
Operation of heating system.
Operation of CO2 Generator, Climate Control, Temperature, Humidity, Heat Radiation, Control of EC, PH, PPM level in irrigation water etc. as required to the plant.
