Innovation and research also involve the right artificial lighting

"The collaboration between C-Led and the experimental centre in Sant'Agata Bolognese began almost ten years ago: in recent years, there has been a continuous dialogue to support the lighting requirements of BASF|Nunhems researchers. Each new project has been defined in relation to the plant species of interest, the different phenological phases and the production objectives of each individual greenhouse," explains Raffaello Montanari, C-Led sales manager.

Cristian D'Elia, technical manager, adds that "The application of C-LED solutions with the COMBO product range within the experimental greenhouses shows how artificial light is now a fundamental parameter for advanced agronomic research. By guaranteeing an optimised light spectrum for tomatoes, watermelons and peppers, our artificial lighting not only supports faster and more uniform growth cycles, but also makes it possible to replicate ideal climatic conditions at any time of the year, thereby accelerating the process of innovation and varietal selection."
