Online, October 19, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Recently, there is an interesting technology projects are promoting: People tried to make environmental protection and energy saving LED light source for plant lighting, and has achieved initial success. Through technical processing under the appropriate wavelength LED light source, the growth rate and survival rate of the plant is expected to improve 20-50%, and about 30% of the energy savings.
Industry insiders estimate that the industrialized breeding of plants using LED alternative to traditional electric light, once the total size of the market will reach hundreds of billions. Light on plant photosynthesis, growth and development, morphogenesis and material metabolism has a regulatory role, greenhouse, greenhouse cultivation, to make up for lack of sunlight with general fluorescent lamps, high pressure sodium lamp and incandescent light source, these the spectral energy distribution of the light source is based on the design of the human eye to light demand, and not in line with the growth of plants. In order to make up for the deficiency of the sunlight, a lot of in-season vegetables had to rely on hormones to stimulate growth.
Spectrum required for plant LED light irradiation can not only promote their growth, improve fruits quality, to ensure greenhouse vegetable taste-season cultivation. In addition, that can greatly reduce the cost of plant breeding, LED plant growth lamps have a high photoelectric conversion efficiency, power consumption is 1/4 fluorescent lamps, sodium lamps 1/10. Currently, Europe, the United States, Japan, China, Taiwan has begun to pay attention LED Grow Lights in the production, and experts predict that in the next 4-5 years, LED lighting will be applied to the plants during their growth as a regulatory tool. Only plant factory breeding industry for an LED light source ,and it can provide a huge consumer market, the seedlings exports reached nearly ten billion. If adopted in industrialized breeding of plants LED alternative to traditional electric light, the once total size of the market will reach 200 billion yuan. LED modern agriculture will become a new field of LED industry development.
