☀️ Solar Radiation & Photobiology Optimization

In Đà Lạt, Central Highlands, Vietnam, natural solar Daily Light Integral transitions from 30-36 mol/m²/day during winter solstice to 32-38 mol/m²/day at summer peak. For commercial crops like Bell Pepper, Beefsteak Tomato, Chrysanthemum, Strawberry, target canopy DLI requires dynamic screen management to avoid photoinhibition during midday radiation spikes exceeding 850 W/m².

🛡️ Recommended Thermal & Shade Screen Specification

Screen Specification: Diffused PE Film (>=70% Diffusion) to Prevent Sunscald

Primary Cooling Strategy: Gothic Multi-span Natural Airflow

Maintaining positive day-night temperature differential (DIF) and nighttime dehumidification minimizes condensation on cold structural glass surfaces, suppressing Botrytis and powdery mildew spore viability.

🌿 Dominant Commercial Production Crops

Major protected cropping varieties grown at scale in this regional cluster: Bell Pepper, Beefsteak Tomato, Chrysanthemum, Strawberry.
