Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to irradiating blue LEDs in a high-concentration carbon dioxide environment after reducing the intrusion of sunlight in a greenhouse with a light-shielding sheet or the like.

Background Art

[0002] In the conventional method, the fruits and beans of coffee trees cultivated in a greenhouse are affected by quality deterioration due to ultraviolet rays and high temperatures from sunlight.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0003] Prevent adverse effects such as ultraviolet rays and high temperatures from sunlight on coffee trees in the greenhouse. Means for Solving the Problems

[0004] This invention provides a light-shielding sheet or the like that reduces the intrusion of sunlight between the ceiling in the greenhouse and the coffee trees. Irradiate the coffee trees with colored LEDs such as blue between the light-shielding sheet or the like and the coffee trees. Increase the carbon dioxide concentration in the greenhouse with a liquefied carbon dioxide cylinder or a carbon dioxide generator. Effects of the Invention

[0005] According to this invention, by reducing the influence of sunlight in the greenhouse, it is possible to improve the yield and quality of fruits and beans obtained from coffee trees cultivated in the greenhouse.
