The Importance of Geothermal Source Technological Greenhouses
Today, the agricultural sector is undergoing a major transformation in terms of sustainability and efficiency. In this transformation, geothermal energy its use, combined with modern agricultural techniques, plays an important role. Turkey's geothermal potential, in particular, paves the way for innovative applications in agriculture and makes significant contributions to the economy.
Kula Municipality Project
Under the leadership of Kula Municipality, Ministry of Youth and Sports, Ministry of Industry and Technology ve Victory Development Agency implemented in collaboration with Geothermal source technological greenhouse, is transforming agricultural activities in the region in an innovative way. This greenhouse contributes significantly to the economy of Kula by providing high-quality products to both domestic and international markets.
Production Process with Modern Agricultural Techniques
In greenhouses heated with geothermal energy, soilless agriculture techniques are used in production. This method allows plants to be grown in a more controlled environment, while minimizing water and fertilizer consumption. Modern agricultural techniques stand out with their high productivity. For example, 2024 thousand tomato seedlings planted in October 145 show how effective this system is.
Environmentally Friendly Approaches
As stated by Kula District Governor Ömer Ahmet Özdemir, this greenhouse stands out with its environmentally friendly approaches. Obtaining high yields with fewer resources compared to traditional methods used in agriculture increases environmental sensitivity and supports the sustainability of agriculture. In this context, the fact that greenhouse technology minimizes environmental impacts is quite promising for the future of the agricultural sector.
Contributions to the Regional Economy
Thanks to the efficient use of geothermal resources, agricultural activities in Kula have become an important source of economic growth. District Governor Özdemir emphasized that this project makes serious contributions to the regional economy and stated that high efficiency is achieved by using fewer resources in agriculture. Such projects increase local employment and increase farmers' income levels.
International Market Opportunities
Products produced in geothermal greenhouses are not only popular in local markets but also worldwide. Especially tomatoes find a place in the international market with their high quality and taste, and this contributes to the promotion of Kula. These products produced with advanced technology increase the export potential and provide foreign exchange input to the country's economy.
Future Goals
Such projects aim not only to improve current agricultural practices but also to leave a more sustainable agricultural approach to future generations. Kula Municipality plans to expand these projects to reach more farmers and encourage digitalization and innovation in agriculture. Geothermal energy With its use, the future of agriculture is made brighter.
As a result
Geothermal-powered technological greenhouses are an important example of sustainable agriculture and contribute greatly to the local economy. These projects, led by Kula Municipality, show how effective modern practices and environmentally friendly approaches can be in agriculture. It is expected that such projects will continue to increase in the coming years. Kula is an important model both economically and environmentally with these innovative agricultural practices.
