______________________________________________________________________________ Monster, March 13th, 2012 Dear Mr. Harutyunyan, You have made the correct choice to contact KUBO Greenhouse Projects to obtain information about your Turn Key greenhouse project.. The glass greenhouse industry has really taken flight from a commercial point of view around 50 years ago. Developments of greenhouses have been many, resulting today in the possibility to build glass greenhouses in all sorts of climate with optimal control of the climate and growing facilities inside the greenhouse, making the best use of light, water and energy. KUBO has always functioned as frontrunner in this field. The objective is to grow vegetables on a commercial basis. It is advised to grow in a Venlo type glass greenhouse. This type of greenhouse was designed many years ago and has proven to be very efficient. The Venlo greenhouse makes it possible to make optimal use of natural light and is highly flexible. Many variations are possible without major alterations to the basic concept. This type of greenhouse is in use on all possible locations worldwide and has proven very successful. As the projected projects are planned to be located in different areas, and will be used for different crops we have to select the best solution in respect to the most optimal situation. Beside the crops we already can make a separation in different climate zones : 1. Cold 2. Moderate 3. Warm For each type of climate zone we can select different items for the exterior and interior of the greenhouse. Due to the very strict regulations in countries like Holland and USA there is a great experience with systems in respect to :
To all our offers and contracting agreements concerning construction and completion of buildings, in particular construction of glasshouses and sheds, including any related parts and installations, in the widest sense of the word, the general terms and conditions of the AVAG apply, which are filed at the office of the District Court at The Hague under number 274/1992 as they are read according to the latest deposited version, the first version of which was deposited on 31 December 1992. On request a copy of the terms and conditions will be sent to you free of charge.

According to the information as provided it is planned to use the cooling water from electricity plants for heating, for this it is good to look at the advanced techniques for this as presently available. Beside the use of this source for heating we also have to be aware of emergency situations when the electricity plants is down for maintenance or down due to installation problems. To overcome this we have to install : 1. A complete backup heating system. 2. A heat storage installation with sufficient capacity to overcome the expected time needed for maintenance or installation problems. This heat storage can be done in insulated tanks above ground level, or in some cases even in a special set-up below ground level Above we mentioned the heating part of the installation, but beside this we also have to look at the CO2 supply for the greenhouse installation, CO2 is one of the important needed elements to create an optimal growing process. Nowadays the construction for most projects are really custom made and not selected in a standard way as in the past. By an inventive custom and crop made investment in compare with the traditional greenhouses you can save a lot on items as : 1. Labor cost 2. Energy cost 3. Chemicals needed for treatment of pest control Also the use of chemicals can be reduced by big % or even by 99 % in combination with biological pest control and an KUBO ultra clima Greenhouse.
In the attachment you will find an overview of the technical possibilities. Yours sincerely, KUBO Greenhouse Projects B.V.

Provided can also be technical area and service building.
Screening For energy saving and shading. In wintertime his screen is necessary to obtain the desired temperature. The screen also protects the crop from too much direct sunlight. Operation of the screen is automatic.
CO2 system Every plant row has it’s own AHU and hose.

Water technical and electrical system Modern techniques are used to supply the plants with water and nutrients. Excess irrigation water will be collected for re-use. There are several automatic operations (such as opening/closing of ventilation windows and opening/closing of the screens). Therefore electrical components, such as cables, cable gutters and control boxes, will be supplied. For optimal operation and control a climate computer will be supplied. Included are a sterilizer as well as a double irrigation system for inter planting.
Hanging grow gutters Included in this budget offer are hanging gutters suitable for tomato plants. With hanging gutters you are able to save costs on labor and you will have a better control of the climate and yield. We calculated for the greenhouse 5 rows per trellis.
Electrotechnical installation Supply and all hook-up materials of all delivered equipment, items and installations. Climate Computer The whole operation is controlled by the climate computer that enables to control the climate precisely as well as the energy household of the greenhouse. Various Needed for the operation is also a weighing/grading/packing line. There are quite a few different systems on the market for this and we advise to study this better at a later stage.
