Crop production systems that combine climate optimization, nature and protection.
A-frame greenhouses are a building style consisting of a triangular frame with the apex pointing upwards.

They have been used in the construction of heating ducts and greenhouse tunnels to provide greater efficiency in mass transfer for plants, due to higher surface area exposed to sunlight.
