TNO has developed a computer program to calculate the light interception of the greenhouse structure using an improved half-perimeter method, taking into account reflections and shadowing. This program is used to compare the light interception of Venlo and wide span type greenhouse. Furthermore, the influence of artificial lighting on the total light interception is considered.
