Soil heating technology is used in Mongolian greenhouses
Soil heating technology is used in Mongolian greenhouses. Mongolian farmers grow vegetables in greenhouses using heated soil. The harvest gets ready within 45 days during winter. Since 2014, Mongolia has been implementing a three-phase project to grow vegetables in greenhouses using renewable energy. The project has been proven to be effective as farmers have collected their first harvest and are getting ready to continue the project during the winter using the soil heating technology which enhances vegetable growth and increases yields for greenhouse tomatoes and other vegetables. The soil heating technology costs up to 30 percent less than other methods for supplying heat to greenhouses. Mongolian producers could fully meet domestic demand for tomatoes, spinach, cucumbers, and other greenhouse vegetables if the project is expanded, told a spokesperson of the Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Light Industry.
