South Korea will use the LED artificial sun plant plant construction

The rapid development of by means of electronic information technology, South Korea is currently exploring the traditional LED (light emitting diode) lighting technology application in agriculture, the use of "artificial sun LED" construction of the new plant factory.

The plant factory is to use can control the temperature, humidity, sunlight, nutrients and water and other facilities on the growth environment of biological artificial regulation, biological like industrial products as a system of production plan. In this plant, LED can provide the light needed for photosynthesis and growth of plants, not only can promote the growth of plants, but also can improve the nutritional content of some of the plants.

, said before the South Korean Ministry of knowledge economy, will invest 3 billion won ($1 or about 1174 won) the development of core technology and accessories, and strive to build a 495 square meters of the demonstration plant factory in the year.

Because this system does not rely on the sun, so even in the absence of the Sun City high-rise building, farming can also become possible. It is reported that South Korea's Ministry of agriculture, forestry and Fisheries plans to plant this year in the plant plant ginseng and strawberry cultivation, from the beginning of next year officially to the market.
