Polytunnels are indeed an excellent choice for growing crops for several reasons:
Weather Protection: Come rain or shine, polytunnels have your crops covered, shielding them from hail, heavy rain, and fierce winds.
Water Conservation: Polytunnels help conserve water by reducing evaporation and runoff. The cover material of the tunnel retains moisture in the soil, allowing plants to absorb water more efficiently.
Soil protection : Polytunnels help protect the soil from erosion caused by wind and rain, as well as from compaction due to foot traffic.
Plants thrive earlier: They offer protection from extreme weather conditions such as frost, wind, and heavy rain, allowing plants to thrive and produce high yields.
Crop consistency: The controlled environment of polytunnels promotes uniform growth and development of plants, resulting in higher-quality produce.
Increases biodiversity: Polytunnels can contribute to boosting biodiversity by providing a sheltered habitat for beneficial insects such as pollinators and natural predators of pests.
