Shibganj (Bogura) & Paba (Rajshahi): Establishing Walk-In Poly-Tunnels with Silver-Black Mulching & DIBL Drip Fertigation
🏡 Greenhouse / Polyhouse & DIBL High-Tech Engineering Profile
1. Greenhouse / Polyhouse Establishment & Regional Agricultural Challenge
In Bogura and Rajshahi, sudden winter cold snaps (8–10°C night temperatures in January), dense fog causing late blight, and early pre-monsoon hailstorms frequently damaged high-value capsicum, strawberry, and melon crops.
2. Drip Irrigation BD Ltd. (DIBL) High-Tech Engineering & Soilless Implementation
Progressive growers partnered with Drip Irrigation BD Ltd. (DIBL) to establish low-cost walk-in poly-tunnels over raised beds covered with 30-micron silver-black reflective mulching film. Beneath the mulch film, DIBL installed twin 16mm drip laterals delivering warm, nutrient-enriched water directly to the root zone without wetting the foliage.
3. Agronomic Yield, Resource Savings & Commercial Return on Investment
Because the leaves stay completely dry inside the poly-tunnel and soil warmth is retained by the mulch, late blight and weed growth dropped by 95%. Farmers harvest 3 weeks earlier than open-field neighbours, commanding ৳140–৳180/kg for early capsicum.
