Solar energy is the main source hubungannnya with plant growth, ninety percent of the dry matter of agricultural crops derived from changes in carbon through photosynthesis process that depends on light.
Lately, many biologists are trying to calculate the productivity of the plant with solar energy and attention catching amendments to chemical energy through photosynthesis.
Materials and finishes the process of photosynthesis is written as follows
(673,000 light energy calories + chlorophyll)
6 CO2 + 12 H2O à C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O
Solar light energy used comes from the wavelengths of 0.4 to 0.7 mikron.Efisiensi photosynthesis is affected by the rate of photosynthesis. The rate of photosynthesis increases with increasing light to some extent, although the rate of photosynthesis increases with increasing light intensity, but the increase is slow so that the capture efficiency of light decreases. If a high light intensity is relatively more upright light reflected by the leaves. The entry of light into the plant canopy is affected by the arrival of beam angles and arrangement of leaves, canopy ideal for light distribution has a uniform leaf arrangement, at the top of the canopy has a more upright leaves and smaller leaves being arranged horizontally below.
The concept of energy flow in agriculture
With regard the plant as a catcher, change and energy storage, then the resulting effort to raise the efficiency and productivity of plants.
In areas of dense plants, some environmental factors may soon be reduced, light, soil moisture and nutrients. This is a limiting factor in agriculture, fertilization is one good way to increase production.
Agricultural efficiency can be obtained by pcrbaikan plants through plant breeding.
One attempt to expand tentacle energy by extending the growing season for example, use the greenhouse for plants that allow input technology and large capital such as horticultural crops in temperate zones.
Trying to influence the rate of photosynthesis by way of exchange of CO2 between the leaves and the atmosphere around it. Winds in areas previously overlooked, maize yields could be improved if the rows are directed perpendicular to the wind, so that the plant shoots the breeze and the circulation and mixing of air.
