What is Protected Cultivation? How is it Done?
Protected cultivation is a plant cultivation method in agricultural production, specifically using greenhouses or protected structures. This method allows plants to be grown under controllable climatic conditions independent of natural environmental conditions. Greenhouses or protected structures help increase product productivity by providing suitable temperature, humidity, light, and other growth factors for plants.
Protected cultivation offers an ideal solution especially in regions where climate conditions are harsh or for agricultural products requiring off-season production. This method supports sustainable agricultural production by ensuring the protection of plants from diseases and pests and optimizing the use of water and fertilizer.
The establishment of greenhouses or protected structures requires proper material selection, correct installation, and effective management. In this process, it is important to carefully plan and manage factors such as climate control, irrigation systems, and fertilization practices. Protected cultivation increases productivity while ensuring more efficient use of natural resources by being integrated with modern agricultural techniques.

Advantages of Protected Cultivation
Protected Cultivation Structures and Types
Protected cultivation structures refer to various structures that allow plants to be grown in a more controlled environment by protecting them from climatic conditions in agricultural production. The main types of protected cultivation structures are:
Low Plastic Tunnels: These are structures close to the ground, usually 1 meter high, and covered with plastic film. They are used to support the early development of plants and provide short-term climate protection. They are low-cost and easy to install, providing early harvest opportunities.
High Tunnels: These are structures approximately 2-3 meters high, allowing plants to develop more comfortably, and are usually covered with plastic film. They are used for longer-term protection and cultivation of larger plants. They are suitable for tall plants, provide climate control, and offer ease of labor.
Greenhouses: Structures covered with glass or plastic covering material, which can be easily walked inside and usually have heating, cooling, and automation systems. They are used for year-round agricultural production in a controlled environment. They offer the possibility of fully controlling climate and environmental conditions, ensuring high yield and quality products.
Types:- Glass Greenhouses: More durable and long-lasting, with high light transmittance.
- Plastic Greenhouses: Cheaper and easier to install, they retain heat well.
Mulch Covers: Covers usually made of thinly woven polyethylene or polypropylene materials, spread over plants. They are used to protect plants from frost, wind, pests, and excessive sun. They protect the natural growth conditions of plants by providing air and water permeability.
- Shaded Tunnels: Tunnel structures with special materials used for shading purposes. They are used to protect from excessive sun and provide coolness. They prevent plants from overheating in the summer months and reduce plant stress.
