Abstract:
Plants can be manipulated to meet different needs by changing how they respond to different colors of light. Plants primarily used blue and red color spectrum and some ultraviolet for their photosynthetic reaction. The plants will grow taller and their leaves will be lighter in color if they aren't getting enough regular sunshine. Growing bulbs that provide the precise illumination needed for plants at different growth stages have been made possible by technology. Artificial light can be used for photosynthesis. Utilizing wavelengths to activate specific organic functions is a new area that can be investigated in the world of agricultural applications. One of the most promising directions for future agriculture is the scientific use of light. A fine-tuned management of all vegetation characteristics is now possible thanks to increasingly accurate numerical data on sunshine. Utilizing wavelengths enables cutting-edge crop protection options. In addition to their intensity, spectrum, and energy, LEDs (light emitting diode) are an innovative artificial lighting source for plants, whether used as additional or sole-source lighting. This is because they allow for the precise modulation of metabolic reactions to increase plant quality and production. LEDs are increasingly widely used in agriculture, mostly for leafy vegetables, herbs, and potted plants. Recent improvements in LED technology have made it feasible to accurately modify a crop's lighting schedule. As a result, there are now opportunities to use plants' ability to adapt during development to raise agricultural yield and quality.
