Greenhouse Film Market to Grow at 8.1% CAGR During 2017 - 2025
Greenhouse films are used to cover the frame of crops which are cultivated in the greenhouse. It provides the protection of crops from adverse weather conditions and suitable farming conditions. It protects from the weather condition such as heavy rain, strong wind, fluctuating temperature, and snow. The selection of film is based on the area where crops are cultivated and its weather requirement.
Governments in the numerous countries are struggling to avoid losses due to the improper employment of greenhouses plant cultivation. The governments such as India, Poland, and Canada are encouraging farmers to adopt the different types of greenhouse films by offering some subsidies for electricity and resources used in the greenhouse.
The kit and other supplements are required for heating and ventilating for maintaining the temperature of crops. Thus, the adoption of these greenhouse films is higher especially in the region where major temperature fluctuations occurred – the places such as deserts. In the particular region, the film offers a suitable temperature for the crop which is difficult to grow due to outdoor temperature. The aforementioned factors are boosting the adoption of greenhouse films and likely to influence positively on the growth of the global greenhouse film market.
