A naturally ventilated poly house, also known as a naturally ventilated greenhouse, is a greenhouse structure designed to harness natural airflow for temperature regulation and climate control. Unlike traditional greenhouses equipped with mechanical ventilation systems, naturally ventilated polyhouses leverage passive ventilation techniques to maintain optimal growing conditions for crops.
Different Names:
Naturally Ventilated Greenhouses
Eco-Friendly Polyhouses
Sustainable Crop Shelters
Passive Ventilation Enclosures
Climate-Smart Growing Structures
Agricultural greenhouse and polyhouse farming have revolutionized the way we cultivate crops, providing controlled environments conducive to year-round production. Yet, even within these sheltered spaces, crops remain vulnerable to external forces, particularly in mountainous regions prone to sudden hailstorms. The consequences of hail damage extend beyond immediate financial loss, affecting livelihoods and food security. Hence, the imperative for effective crop protection measures becomes evident.
Before delving into the intricacies of shade net houses, it’s important to understand the basics of dragon fruit cultivation. Dragon fruit, also known as pitaya, is a tropical fruit that thrives in warm climates with well-draining soil. It belongs to the cactus family and has a striking appearance with its vibrant colors and unique shape. To successfully cultivate dragon fruit, several key factors must be taken into consideration. These include suitable soil pH levels, irrigation practices, and proper pruning techniques. Additionally, pollination plays a vital role in the fruiting process, making it necessary to introduce bees or other pollinators to the growing area.
Blueberry, also referred as Vaccinium myrtillus as scientific nomenclature thrives on very small shrubs, about 50 cm high, in light undergrowth with acidic soil. This plant is native to North America.
In contrast, cultivated blueberry shrubs can reach up to 2.50 m in height and produce larger fruits than their wild counterparts. Blueberry bushes require specific growing conditions; excessive wind, dryness, and alkaline soil can damage and weaken the crop.
Cultivating blueberry bushes in plastic greenhouses (tunnel type) with climate control technology and suitable soil or substrate promotes higher yield and better quality.
In the dynamic world of agriculture, blueberry farmers are always on the lookout for innovative methods to boost productivity, enhance fruit quality, and embrace sustainable farming practices. High tunnels have emerged as a revolutionary solution in blueberry cultivation, offering numerous benefits that help farmers overcome traditional challenges and seize new opportunities. This setup helps regulate temperature, humidity, and protects plants from adverse weather conditions. This comprehensive guide delves into how high tunnels can transform blueberry farming, driving higher yields and superior quality produce.

Compact Computer: The Amethyst is a single-board computer. It uses just six integrated circuits—a CPU, USB interface, and four 7400 chips, which are used to make 215-color video graphics possible. Keyboard switches are soldered directly to the board, which also supports audio and four serial I/O connections for peripherals like game controllers or storage devices. A built-in Forth virtual machine provides a programming environment.
Consequently, I needed a lightweight programming environment for users, which led me to choose Forth over the traditional Basic. Forth is an old language for embedded systems, and it has the nice feature of being both interactive and capable of efficient compilation of code. You can do a lot in a very small amount of space. Because the 1284P does not allow compiled machine code to be executed directly from its RAM, a user’s code is instead compiled to an intermediate bytecode. This bytecode is then fed as data to a virtual machine running from the 1284P’s flash memory. The virtual machine’s code was written in assembly code and hand-tuned to make it as fast as possible.

“infrastructural platforms.” "Instead of thinking about platform companies as the next generation of newspapers, radio stations, or TV channels, we should see them as entirely new entities that shapeshift constantly. Sometimes they are like cities, newsrooms, post offices, libraries, or utilities — but they are but they are always like advertising firms. Do not forget this: They earn the vast majority of their revenue through advertising. They are primarily driven by advertising priorities....5 ways to see platform power...
Flawed as they are (and they often are), we have courts, we have parliaments, we have elections, we have civil societies — we have traditions of democratic legitimacy. And let’s not forget: Platforms need us — our content, out labor, our attention, our money. They are ours to control — if we can figure out how to do it.

Apple was the recipient of illegal tax breaks from Ireland. That was the finding today of a European Union (EU) Commission investigation into the tech giant’s business and tax practices. The result? The company has been ordered to pay €13 billion ($14.5 billion U.S.), plus interest, to settle back taxes owed to Ireland.

There was always more to the Apple v FBI case than met the eye – and it is true for this latest twist too. The biggest issue is that both sides stand to gain a lot more from this battle than any of us. With little relation to reality, and backed by a worryingly partisan chorus, the notoriously closed Apple is emerging as a champion of users’ rights. Equally worryingly, a government agency is claiming the power to keep to itself a tool that can potentially break security features on millions of phones, while earmarking a demand for further judicial or legislative intervention in the future. Whichever way you look, this feud is far from a road to freedom in the digital environment.

The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein, today issued a statement urged United States law enforcement authorities to exercise caution in their legal fight against Apple computer company, saying it could have “extremely damaging implications for the human rights of many millions of people, including their physical and financial security.”
A decision against Apple “is potentially a gift to authoritarian regimes, as well as to criminal hackers,” he said.

February 16, 2016 A Message to Our Customers
The United States government has demanded that Apple take an unprecedented step which threatens the security of our customers. We oppose this order, which has implications far beyond the legal case at hand.
This moment calls for public discussion, and we want our customers and people around the country to understand what is at stake.
--- now the U.S. government has asked us for something we simply do not have, and something we consider too dangerous to create. They have asked us to build a backdoor to the iPhone.
