cost of greenhouse in 2022
(How much is needed to build a greenhouse?) The answer to this question is very sensitive. Sensitive because right or wrong advice can lead to start or stop building a greenhouse. Do not forget to consult with trusted experts in this field. You can contact the virgin farm consultants through our contact portal. this essay is all about cost of greenhouse and exactly about each part.
The cost of building a greenhouse is very different and varies from 8$ to 77$ per square meter.
What products And In which area We want to cultivate? these are the two basic questions we need to address. It is better to know, before constructing a greenhouse to cultivate any type of crop, we must know the climatic conditions of the region and the type of land, and especially the best cultivation method. In this article, you can find out the detailed cost of greenhouse structures, equipment and fittings, so that in addition to climate and weather conditions, you can also consider the costs in parallel.
In general, in order to study the necessary cost of greenhouse construction, specialized and professional design should be done first, and finally in accordance with the type and quality of the structure, the prevailing conditions of the region, customer attitude and mentality, number and capacity of equipment, type of product, type of cultivation and… Pricing to be done. So this is not easy to do and you have to use precision and precision to build the most suitable type of greenhouse.
In addition, we suggest that you do not leave the design in the hands of inexperienced and low-specialized people, and of course government complexes and the agricultural engineering system, because the design of these complexes is done with information from 10 years ago, which causes losses to greenhouse owners and Dear employers.
It should be mentioned that in Mazrae Bekr Company, the design of structures and equipment is done in a completely specialized way.
These calculations and designs fit:
– Climatic conditions governing the climate of the region
– Topography of the area
– Attitude and mentality of the project owner
-product type
Type of cultivation
It is designed that in this direction, the consultations of Mazra Bekr Company can have a very positive effect on the attitude and mentality of the employer, so that we can move towards the turning point of the cost and profit of the project. Therefore, according to the information that we have already made available to you, the owner should be aware of the climatic conditions of the area in question, the type of weather, the amount and manner of wind, and so on. In this regard, for a suitable design to build a greenhouse, you must pre-determine the type of your product.
The cost of building a greenhouse
In this section, we examine the costs of building a greenhouse in different ways.
1- Necessary cost of building a turnkey greenhouse (structure + complete equipment)
2- Separate costs of structures and equipment
3- The cost of installing structures and equipment
4- The cost of building a greenhouse in different products
5- Different parts and fittings of the greenhouse
(Keep in mind that the prices below are approximate, and in order to have a profitable and reliable project, the professional expert of Mazrae Bekr Company must determine the type of structure and equipment and the exact amount of capital required to build the greenhouse.)
1- cost of building a turnkey greenhouse
Many people interested in entering the greenhouse industry mistakenly think that the amount of capital needed to build a greenhouse is much lower than its actual level. If qualified people in this field can face you with reality and real prices and costs. If they do not do proper research and waste their money and build non-standard greenhouses, not only will they not have a good income, but they will also have a very high probability of loss. However, it should be noted that just as excessive costs do not necessarily guarantee the success of an economic project, excessive cost reduction and non-compliance with a set of necessary standards in the construction of structures and running costs can also lead to project failure and more losses for owner.
The required cost of building a turnkey greenhouse construction per square meter of greenhouse can be seen below:
(The amounts mentioned do not include the cost of buying land, cold storage, packing shade, electricity, water and gas concessions, etc.)
– The total cost of construction of tunnel greenhouse plus its facilities is 4$ to 40$ per square meter.
– The total price of the construction of greenhouses of Iranian design, plus its facilities, is 8$ to 28$ per square meter.
– The total cost of constructing Spanish greenhouses with complete equipment and facilities is 16$ to 58$ per square meter.
2- Separate costs of structures and equipment
The structure of the Spanish greenhouse is 10$ to 16$ per square meter
Iranian greenhouse structure per 8$ to 13$ per square meter
The structure of a tunnel greenhouse is 2.7$ to 6$ per square meter
Cover of all plastics per square meter 1$ to 2$
One of the most important parts that should be considered in the construction and implementation of a greenhouse is the cover and plastic of the greenhouse. In greenhouses, UV-coated plastics are mainly used for covering. This coating is cheaper than other types, i.e. polycarbonate or glass coatings. As a result, using this type of coverage affects your costs. Greenhouse plastics are produced and sold not only abroad, but also in Iran and in widths of 8, 10, 12 and 14.
What are the benefits of greenhouse plastic or nylon? – Cost savings – Increased energy efficiency – High resistance to natural and physical damage – Creates a uniform and uniform coverage due to the fit of structures – Contains additives that lead to greater resistance – Resistance to ultraviolet rays of the sun – Cold resistance and its entry into the greenhouse – With anti-vapor and drop additive – Resistant to drought and fragility – Proper light distribution evenly in the greenhouse.
Fan and pad 1.9$ to 3.2$ per square meter
This system is one of the evaporative cooling systems used in greenhouses. If this system is used, water particles will enter the air by suction of exhaust fans from the pads installed in the greenhouse, and these particles will absorb the heat in the greenhouse to evaporate, thus cooling the greenhouse air. The main advantage of this system compared to the fogger and the fan is that in the fogger, water with low EC and TDS must be used, but in the pad, by observing the fineness of 2 to 3 percent of the water consumed during the operation of the pad, low quality water can be used.
Components of fan and pad system: This system consists of air drain fans, cellulose pads, water storage and circulation tanks, pumps, water transfer pipes and filters and… The special structure and formulation of this system has made it impossible for all countries to produce and sell this product. Due to the special technology used in the production of this product, few companies in the country or abroad have the ability to produce this product with quality. If greenhouse owners use non-original and similar pads, not only will they not be able to reap the many benefits, but they will incur additional costs.
Of course, designing a basic and practical system of fans and pads at a reasonable price does not end here. Pad and fan will. In a greenhouse where the distance between the fan and the pad is 30 to 60 meters, greenhouse owners will see better efficiency. Another point to note is that in greenhouses such as cucumber and tomato greenhouses where the planting rows form a wall, the pad and fan must be installed at the beginning and end of the planting rows, otherwise the planting rows will block the movement of system air and This form of calculation will change.
Heating system 1.8$ to 14.5$ per square meter
Boiler is one of the most modern equipment used in greenhouses, especially smart greenhouses. This device is commonly used for greenhouses with hydroponic cultivation. This system is hassle-free and low consumption, and in addition, it will bring excellent efficiency for greenhouse owners. The pipes that are spread through this floor of the greenhouses can be used as harvesting rails. This device uses boilers, underground pumps, main temperature transfer pipes, side pipes and ignited connections, etc.
Hot stoves are the most common method of heating in Iran, which is made by stoves with capacities of 100,000 to 300,000 kcal, which are also very different materials.
Greenhouse flue jet heaters are available in gas, diesel and dual fuel types with and without tanks with different heating capacities and with domestic and foreign brands, for greenhouses with different dimensions, height and climate. The structure and body of the heaters are made of steel. Mazrae Bekr Company tries to select the best brands that have the most appropriate price in terms of quality and offer it to its customers through its internal and external research.
The heater unit system is based on hot water sent by the house engine and boilers. The fan of the device, which is of the axial type and is fully static and dynamic balanced, distributes the heat on the surface of the greenhouse with the least possible noise by passing air through the coil. This system is much cheaper than underfloor heating systems and also has a much poorer performance. But it is much more efficient than lost air heaters.
Moving energy curtain 2.6$ to 5$ per square meter
Irrigation per square meter 1$ to 2$
Electricity system per square meter 1$ to 3$
Automation 0.6 to 2$ per square meter
Cultivation bed (grow bag, Ionolite box, cartonPlast) 2$ to 6$ per square meter
Fixed shading per square meter 0.5$ to 0.9$
Fogger 1$ to 2.9$ per square meter
The misting system is practical and effective for cooling the greenhouse air and also adjusting the humidity level. This system is designed and adjusted in greenhouses according to the type of product and cultivation rows with different pressures and directions. When the humidity level is low, photosynthesis takes place slowly and may even stop altogether. In stressful environments, plants cannot exchange carbon dioxide, moisture and oxygen. This greenhouse misting system, by spraying very small drops of water in an approximate size between 3 to 20 microns (about one twentieth to one third of the diameter of human hair) using different spray nozzles, uniformly throughout the environment and above the product Plays. Due to their small size and lightness, these particles evaporate by rapidly absorbing the heat in the space, cooling the space and increasing the humidity.
Advantages of using greenhouse misting systems: – Easy temperature control in the greenhouse environment – Uniform growth of crop growth on the greenhouse surface – Faster growth of plants and products – In the production of cut flowers, flowers grow larger and with a lighter color -Increasing the quantity and quality of greenhouse products -Preventing the growth of bacteria and their transmission.
Floor covering 0.5$ to 0.8$ per square meter
Greenhouse flooring is used in hydroponic cultivation, especially when using different culture media such as growbag, Carton Plast, CocoPeat, etc. Hydroponic greenhouse floor covering can be concrete or mortar or flooring, which due to pests and environmental conditions of agricultural products, in most greenhouse projects, the use of flooring is recommended, which has less pests and a more reasonable price.
Polyethylene flooring is produced in the country, in widths of 150, 200, 300 and 400. These floors have 3 to 5 percent UV. Greenhouse flooring is generally produced in two colors, white or white with gray stripes.
Advantages of using greenhouse flooring: – Reduction of diseases that are transmitted through soil. – Reduce growth and create weeds – Greenhouse cleaning is easier – Prevent overheating in summer – Light weight and reasonable price – Prevent greenhouse floor flowering
Circulation fan per square meter 0.5$ to 0.7$
The circulating fan is able to equalize the air inside the structure in terms of temperature, humidity, oxygen and carbon dioxide. This fan is installed at the maximum height of the greenhouse and under the roof.
3- Cost of installing structures and equipment
We gave the specifications of the Spanish greenhouse in other sections and in this section we will pay for the installation of the Spanish greenhouse structure. This cost includes accommodation, food, insurance, and travel for greenhouse installation crews and greenhouse installers, as well as the tools needed. This cost varies according to the height and type of Spanish structure and location and having a roof vent and و and usually the cost of installing a Spanish greenhouse structure is between 1$ to 2.4$ per square meter.
With more than a decade of experience in the implementation and installation of greenhouses and livestock units and obtaining ISO HSE certification, the ability and expertise to perform zero to one hundred steps of construction and installation of greenhouse structures, by professional installation teams in the best way and with the highest speed. Our greenhouse structure installation crews are either an independent company whose manager is present in its team, or the installation and assembly of greenhouses, livestock breeding halls and warehouses is done directly under the supervision of the company and with the approval of the greenhouse installer. The assembly teams of Mazrae Bekr Company use special equipment and tools for assembling the greenhouse. This equipment, together with our expertise and experience, enables us to work efficiently and safely quickly and allows us to deliver competitive performance.

The cost of building a rose greenhouse
Greenhouses Cut flowers need more up-to-date equipment due to the high sensitivity of these flowers. So it is a waste that despite better and more equipment, this greenhouse costs more than others.
The amount required for the construction of these greenhouses is 3.1$ to 65.5$ per square meter.
5- Prices of greenhouse parts and connections (clamps)
Main and side columns
The column is one of the most important components of a greenhouse and is responsible for bearing the load of the greenhouse. The columns are usually installed in such a way that they are resistant to wind, snow and rain and are firmly in place. The columns are usually made of galvanized profiles and their number and distance from each other is adjusted based on weather conditions and the type of greenhouse, the price of each meter of 80 by 80 profiles with a thickness of two millimeters is about 6.9$.
capitals
The capitals are generally designed in two-sided and two-sided forms, 2 and 3 mm, and are responsible for connecting the main column to the arches of the greenhouse, and their material is galvanized, the price of which varies between 4.3$ to 8.9$.
Bow
Bows are usually pipes made of galvanized stainless steel and used in the construction of greenhouse roofs. The price per meter of the arc length of a 60-pipe greenhouse varies from about 2.7 to 5$.
wind breaker
Windbreak or windbrace is used to strengthen the greenhouse structure against wind. Braces are usually placed in the corners and front of the greenhouse. The number and dimensions of braces depend on the speed of the wind in that area and do not have a specific price.
Gutters
Greenhouses need galvanized gutters to guide rainwater and snow. These gutters are produced with different number of bends, sheets and widths, and the price of each of them, which is about 5 meters, is between 38.6$ and 77$.
Bolts
To connect different parts of the structure, the greenhouse needs quality and durable bolts and nuts.
Skylight
