Greenhouse cultivation has evolved from simple covered rows of open-fields crops to highly
sophisticated controlled environment agriculture (CEA) facilities that projected the image of …

Emission-free closed-field crop cultivation at a commercial scale necessitates microclimate
evaluation for embracing the production uncertainties and maximizing the returns. This …

This work proposes a novel data-driven robust model predictive control (DDRMPC)
framework for automatic control of greenhouse in-door climate. The framework integrates …

Horticultural protected cultivation has spread throughout the world as it has proven to be
extremely effective. In recent years, the greenhouse engineering research field has become …

A reference on the development and state-of-the-art in optimal greenhouse control, this book
focuses on model-based methods to achieve the best economic result. The authors discuss …

Modern agriculture is nowadays subject to regulations in terms of quality and environmental
impact and thus it is a field where the application of automatic control techniques has …

Saving energy in greenhouses is an important issue for growers. Here, we present a method
to minimize the total energy that is required to heat and cool a greenhouse. Using this …

In a modern greenhouse there are a number of alternative systems that can be deployed to
control the climate, and the choice what to use and when is not easy for the grower. A novel …

Writing down mathematical models of agricultural greenhouses and regulating them via
advanced controllers are challenging tasks since strong perturbations, like meteorological …
