It is estimated that by 2021, the global LED plant lighting system market will exceed US$2 billion

"In the past, growing vegetables relied on the sky, but now growing vegetables relies on electricity." With the development of the times, nowadays, the agricultural revolution with science and technology as the core-Agriculture 4.0 is quietly coming. Under the agriculture 4.0 model, greenhouse planting has become a market trend, and agricultural projects such as greenhouses and plant factories have been implemented to promote the rapid development of the agricultural economy.

As an important food for growing plants in greenhouses, plant lighting has become an indispensable part of the development of modern agriculture.

Advanced plant lighting technology can promote the healthy development of plants by adjusting the spectrum layout, light quantity, light quality and other important factors that affect plant growth, improve plant quality and yield, thereby effectively alleviating the pressure caused by the shortage of food, energy, land and other resources . At present, LED plant lighting has been widely used in developed countries and regions such as the United States, Japan, South Korea, etc. According to data, it is expected that by 2021, the global LED plant lighting system market will exceed 2 billion US dollars.

So, what is the difference between LED plant lighting, which is a representative of new plant lighting, and common plant lighting products such as fluorescent lamps, high pressure sodium lamps, and metal halide lamps in the market? Where is it so hot?

LED plant lighting has many advantages such as higher electro-optical conversion efficiency, adjustable spectrum, and high photosynthetic efficiency. Compared with traditional plant lighting, LED plant lighting also has the advantages of energy saving, environmental protection, long life, monochromatic light, and cold light source.
