Light intensity, its distribution, and light colour warmth, have a positive influence on both plants and animals in commercial cultivation.
LED lighting systems for plant cultivation in enclosed areas can increase plant photosynthesis and reduce energy consumption, thus providing higher crop yields and the most delicious vegetables from sustainable cultivation.
Lighting on cattle- and poultry-breeding farms reduces aggressiveness, which is a direct consequence of overpopulation. Diseases, deformities, and parasites manifest to a much smaller extent. The balance of lighting factors on farms influences the health and productivity of plants and animals. Light fixtures or lighting are considered to be large energy consumers on a farm, so one should also take energy efficiency into account. Lighting can account for as much as 20% of all electricity costs on a farm. The total savings in the lighting system can amount to 60% of electrical energy, especially in systems with obsolete incandescent light bulbs. By means of LED lighting systems optimized for crops and cattle-breeding, we achieve a balanced illumination, thus saving up to 85% of the energy. For farm cultivation we recommend electrical equipment and lamps that can be washed even under high pressure.
Out of the wide spectrum of our professional lighting, on farms we regularly use linear, surface-mounted, pendant, … types of lighting.
