[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","Greenhouse cultivation has expanded in recent decades with increased demand for food production and newly developed technologies to improve processes. This book, which concentrates on plant production grown in plastic greenhouse conditions, covers growing techniques such as fertilization and plant protection and up-to-date technologies and management practices. It also takes an integrated approach to greenhouse production addressing issues such as economics, marketing and production strategies.This is the English edition of the successful Spanish book published by Ediciones Mundi-Prensa, Madri"]
