Project Background
The farmer sought to improve production by protecting crops from harsh weather, reducing pest pressure, and increasing water efficiency. INSTEFAST Limited designed and installed a modern 8 × 48 m tunnel greenhouse equipped with a complete drip irrigation system to support year-round capsicum production.
Installation Process
The project included:
- Site survey and greenhouse orientation
- Foundation setting and anchoring
- Assembly of the galvanized steel structure
- Installation of the 200-micron UV-stabilized greenhouse cover
- Installation of insect-proof side ventilation
- Installation of a complete drip irrigation system
- Water supply connection and system testing
- Farmer training on greenhouse management and irrigation scheduling
The installation was completed within a few days, allowing planting to begin immediately afterward.
Before
