About Greenhouse Construction in Eldoret

Greenhouses are one of the oldest and most dependable methods of growing and maintaining plants throughout the seasons. They help plants thrive by trapping sunlight and heat energy. Maintaining a moist, humid environment, regardless of how windy, cold, dry, or otherwise unpleasant the weather is outside. Many commercial greenhouses have heaters and coolers, allowing them to grow plants almost year-round in any climate. Individually, greenhouses may be desirable in a residential setting to allow you to grow and maintain vegetables, flowers, and other plants in your yard on a small scale. These are typically small greenhouses that are pre-fabricated and relatively simple to install.

Why greenhouse farming in Eldoret

Kenya, in particular, has a warm and humid environment throughout the year, with temperatures ranging from 15 to 40 degrees Celsius. Various sections of the nation, particularly Eldoret, have different levels of this. Plants such as flowers, tomatoes, capsicum, coriander, collards, and cucumber do not thrive in this environment. This necessitates changes in order for them to thrive. As a result, many farmers in Eldoret need to resolve to greenhouse farming, which provides a more regulated environment.

Weather unpredictability is one of the most difficult aspects of growing open-air plants. Farmers will suffer losses due to a lack of rain at critical times in the plant’s life cycle. Greenhouses combat this by employing drip irrigation, an alternative farming technique that we will examine as the second technology. For a good portion of the year, 40 percent of Kenya’s regions are dry, which poses a significant challenge to outdoor farming. Farmers then choose greenhouses equipped with drip irrigation systems.

Greenhouses increase production by ensuring that plants harvesting are for the course of their maturity rather than just a few weeks as is the case with open-air farming. A greenhouse may earn up to ksh 400,000 in a single season, making it a very successful investment.

The threat of pests and illnesses is another motivation for greenhouse farming. Aphids, white flies, moths, spiders, and a variety of other insects are widespread in Kenyan habitats. These insects are harmful to the plants’ health, resulting in low yields and poor quality. To avoid this, farmers resort to greenhouse farming, which keeps pests at bay and management is easy.
