(i). Controlled Environment Agriculture<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

This program aims to develop new extension education activities that provide Indiana growers with formal and experiential training on greenhouse and indoor CEA systems using research-based, region-specific information developed at Purdue University and outside authenticated research materials. Further, formal and experiential training is provided to growers on sensor technologies that aid in plant monitoring and increasing crop quality and productivity.<\/span><\/p>\n
