Description

[0001] CULTIVATION CONTROL SYSTEM [0002]

The present invention relates to a cultivation control system, and more particularly, to a cultivation control system that can be systematically and efficiently managed.

Glass greenhouses or vinyl greenhouses are widely used to grow crops, to stimulate or inhibit crops, or to grow special crops that do not grow in the field or produce crops continuously throughout the year. The interior of the greenhouse is kept at a higher temperature than the outside due to the solar heat, and most of the sunlight is transmitted to the plant through glass or vinyl, thus creating a favorable environment for crop growth.

On the other hand, the growth environment conditions of crops depend on the kind of crops and the growth stage, and the appropriate growth environment can be controlled according to the growth stage of the crop, so that the crop yield can be increased.

Generally, plants containing crops can be divided into growth stages by germination stage, nutrition growth stage, reproductive growth stage, etc., and the environmental conditions such as soil, water, light and temperature may be different depending on each growth stage.

In recent years, it has been known that there are differences depending on various external environmental factors in the kind of crops and growth stage. However, since the external environment factors are not controlled differently depending on the types of crops or growth stages in the greenhouses, It is impossible to satisfy the requirement of
