360° all-round view: Growing systems of growers' associations - requirements and possibilities

3:30 pm, Saturday

Deep Dive

The requirements for a plant for cultivation associations are numerous and varied.
They result from the KCanG, fire protection, building law, electrical standards and, last but not least, the specific needs of the plants.
Such a plant should never be considered in isolated parts, but always as a well thought-out overall concept.
In my presentation, I will show how all these factors interact and how a plant can be designed to meet the high demands.
I will discuss the structural design, the implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), climate control, efficient irrigation systems and optimal lighting solutions.
These elements are crucial for the successful and sustainable operation of a cultivation facility.
