In 2017, the first experiment was carried out to get some benchmarks and figures for red and yellow pepper cultivars.
project aims on getting representative data for pepper growing in a closed greenhouse environment. The results were analyzed in terms of production and water use efficiency. .
Two pepper cultivars (Yellow and red)
Yellow pepper was producing 20.4 kg/m² while red pepper 23.8 kg/m²
Good fruit quality standards for both cultivars.
