With the frequent occurrence of extreme weather events caused by global climate change, agriculture faces unprecedented challenges. In this context, agricultural domes are gradually becoming an important force in promoting sustainable agricultural development. Next, let’s understand what an agricultural dome is and why it can promote agricultural production.

What Is Agriculture Dome?

Agriculture dome is a dome-shaped agricultural building designed to optimize the crop growth environment. It builds a closed ecosystem that effectively resists bad weather, extends the planting season, and improves crop yield and quality.
Besides, the agriculture dome can be customized according to specific needs to adapt to different climate conditions and crop types. Inside, the agriculture dome can be equipped with advanced irrigation systems, temperature control equipment, and light regulation devices to optimize the optimal environment required for crop growth.

Why Choose Geodesic Dome Greenhouse in Agriculture

When it comes to agricultural production, choosing the right greenhouse structure is crucial for ensuring optimal growing conditions and maximizing productivity. The geodesic dome greenhouse stands out due to its pros. Let's take a look at the advantages of this dome.

Efficient Light Utilization

The curved surface design of the geodesic dome greenhouse is conducive to increasing the indoor lighting area. Moreover, the geodesic dome greenhouse is made of advanced materials such as transparent PVC fabric, polycarbonate, and glass, which is beneficial to sunlight exposure. With these elements, the agricultural dome can make the plants fully receive sunlight and promote photosynthesis and growth.
Compared with traditional rectangular greenhouses, geodesic dome greenhouses can maintain a more uniform light distribution throughout the daylight cycle, which avoids the problem of insufficient light in rectangular greenhouses.

Excellent Structural Stability

The structure of the geodesic dome greenhouse is based on the principle of a stable triangle. Therefore, this greenhouse structure can withstand the invasion of severe weather conditions such as strong winds and heavy snow, ensuring the stability of the greenhouse's internal environment.
Due to its curved surface design, the agriculture dome can also effectively disperse external loads and reduce structural stress concentration, thereby improving the overall structural load-bearing capacity and service life. So you do not need to worry about sudden collapse accidents caused by structural instability and crops can grow safely.

High Space Utilization Efficiency

The height of a dome greenhouse is usually 5-8 meters or even higher, and the internal space is much larger. This tall and spacious space allows growers to carry out multi-layer planting, which can greatly improve the planting capacity per unit area. Moreover, with this high space, growers can plant more types of crops in the agriculture dome. This can improve economic benefits and increase the stability of the ecosystem.

Beautiful and Unique Appearance

The geodesic dome greenhouse has attracted many people's attention with its unique appearance design and graceful curves. In particular, agricultural tourism and sightseeing agriculture are more and more popular. This agriculture dome not only provides convenient conditions for agricultural production but also presents a unique hemispherical shape that attracts a large number of tourists to visit and experience.

Modular Design

The geodesic dome greenhouse adopts a modular design and decomposes the greenhouse structure into several independent and standardized modular parts. You only need to follow the instructions and use simple tools to quickly complete the construction of the greenhouse. This design reduces the investment in manpower and overall cost.
In addition, the modular design also brings a lot of convenience to future maintenance work. Each module is relatively independent. If a part of the agriculture dome needs repair, you only need to replace the part without large-scale dismantling of the entire geodesic dome greenhouse.

Other Applications of Agriculture Domes

Due to the versatility and wide-ranging potential of agriculture domes, it becomes evident that their applications extend far beyond traditional agricultural planting. In this part, we will explore the different applications where agriculture domes can be utilized.

Modern Agricultural Planting

Agricultural domes are widely used in agricultural planting, especially in the cultivation of flowers, fruits, and vegetables. The dome structure can effectively gather sunlight to provide sufficient photosynthesis conditions for flowers and fruits, which improves the quality of the flowers and fruits. Moreover, the dome design can also effectively prevent extreme weather damage to vegetables to ensure a stable supply throughout the year to meet market demand.

Ecotourism

As people's interest in ecotourism grows, agricultural domes have become a new type of leisure building. In agricultural domes, visitors can experience agricultural activities such as planting and picking, and feel the joy of rural life. Besides, some agricultural domes also combine landscape design and cultural elements to create unique scenery spots, attracting a large number of tourists to visit.

Accommodation

Agricultural domes are popular in hotels and resorts due to their unique half-circle shape and strong structure. The agriculture dome can effectively disperse wind force and is made of rainproof and sun-proof materials, providing a safe and comfortable living environment. Furthermore, they have a spacious interior space for tourists to rest and store equipment.

Bring Your Version into Life with Our Geodesic Dome Greenhouse Kit

If you are considering purchasing a dome for agricultural production, our 4m domes and glass domes are excellent options. These domes are specifically designed to enhance sustainable farming practices and provide a conducive environment for plant growth.

4m Transparent Domes

Our 4m transparent domes are very suitable for agricultural applications. They use transparent PVC material as a cover, which is not only durable but also has good light transmittance. They can effectively allow sunlight to penetrate and evenly illuminate the inside of the dome to provide sufficient lighting conditions for plants.
Moreover, the internal design of the dome does not use the traditional column support structure, avoiding the obstruction or hindrance of the column to the growth of crops. Therefore, our 4m transparent domes provide an unobstructed growth environment.

Glass Domes

Our glass domes are also suitable for agriculture. They are made of laminated tempered glass and sturdy aluminum alloy frames. Whether it’s strong winds or blizzards, this glass dome can stand firm. The glass domes can withstand wind loads up to 120 km/h and snow loads up to 51 kg/m², ensuring a strong and safe growing environment for crops.
To meet the needs of different agricultural cultivation scales, our glass domes also offer a wide range of customization options, with diameters ranging from 5 meters to 50 meters. This means that whether it is a small family farm or a large agricultural planting base, these glass domes can meet your needs.
