Over recent years there has been a considerable increase in knowledge about the beneficial effects of artificial light upon plant growth and yield.

Also, in combination with new growing techniques, significant developments in horticultural lamps, reflectors and light balancers have resulted in the use of artificial lights becoming a practical and economic proposition.

This handbook provides a general appreciation of the photobiological processes that take place in plants, and the types and techniques of artificial lighting available to stimulate or control those growth processes.
