Wooden Greenhouses from Locally Available Materials
Wooden greenhouses offer the best alternative for farmers who would want to grow tomatoes and sweet peppers under a greenhouse environment. Low cost wooden greenhouses are constructed using locally available timber and poles. They cost lower than metallic greenhouse.

Wooden Greenhouse Ventilation
The greenhouse has to be well ventilated to prevent suffocation of the crops. Ventilation also ensures there is no buildup of pests and diseases. This is done by erecting side curtains or roll up which is opened during the day when it’s hot and closed in the evening. It is made in such a way that there is a net on the inside to allow air in while at the same time preventing insect pests from getting inside.
