LED lights to increase pepper yields under saline irrigation conditions

Agricultural researchers from the UPCT have created a portable prototype of LED lights that combines different wavelengths for use in greenhouse crops. Their goal is to study the effect that the application of light pulses in certain phenological stages has on plants, especially when they're irrigated with low-quality water with a high percentage of salinity. Researchers chose to carry out their test on pepper crops, as previously demonstrated the effectiveness of the treatment on young seedlings. "We observed an increase in production in the test subjects compared to ...
