1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Agricultural sector although significantly important to the development of rural life and
its contribution to food security has for many years encountered the problem of declines in
productivity and lack of a structured approach to production and distribution of food. This
project is crafted with the aim of addressing these issues through applied research,
development and technology, the promotion of environmentally friendly production practices
through capacity building and ensuring the diversification of rural economies. For more than
a decade the sector has been characterized by:
• Low production
• High prices
• Inconsistent supplies
• Variable quality
In addition, several stakeholders have lamented the fact that one or a combination of the
above factors has lead to their demise in the international markets. Based on field visits and
prior knowledge, the existing production systems result in low productivity, inconsistent
supplies and quality, and high unit production costs due to the following:
• Limited implementation of Good Agricultural Practices (GAPs) & Integrated Crop
Management (ICM)
• Low production technology
• Limited Farm infrastructure
• Poor Water supply in selected areas
• Inefficient water use where it is available
• Limited technical knowledge
• Limited technical support
The components to this project: research, training, and commercial greenhouse clusters with
post harvest facility presents an opportunity to change the current landscape in the Jamaican
agricultural sector to a technology driven sector with increased efficiencies and productivity
and create linkages to high value sectors such tourism and agro processing.
The activities within the horticultural sector will focus on assisting the sector by promoting
new technologies and improved production practices. These activities include:
• Research and development
• Market research (demand, supply, pricing mechanisms)
• Training and Technical Assistance
• Establishing a structured distribution mechanism
• Commercial deployment of greenhouses
Details of the service required are provided in The Terms of Reference in Appendix 1 and
Consultants are invited to submit Proposals for delivery of this service.
The proposal will be the basis for contract negotiations and ultimately a signed contract with
the selected firm.

APPENDIX A: Terms of Reference
Jamaican Greenhouse Fabrication and Construction
1.0 Background
The Ministry of Agriculture has recognized greenhouse horticulture as one of the strategies to
be used, to modernize and transform agricultural production. Greenhouse farmers have
experienced significant increases in yields, longer harvesting time, and protection against
weather, pests and diseases. The success of greenhouse horticulture has resulted in re-
investment by existing growers and attracted new investors. Consequently, the number of
houses and area under protective cultivation has grown rapidly in recent years and is
expected to continue this trend.
In 2004, Ivan a Category 5 hurricane, passed in close proximity to Jamaica and caused
extreme damage to the local agricultural sector. On August 19, 2007, Jamaica was impacted
by the Category 4 Hurricane Dean. Extreme winds surpassing 180 km/hr caused extensive
damage to greenhouse infrastructure and crops. The damage to greenhouses caused by
Hurricane Dean has prompted the present concern about the resilience of greenhouses, their
resistance to hurricane force winds, and how this is affected by factors such as their
geographic location, orientation with respect to wind direction, design and construction. The
capacity of greenhouse structures to withstand earthquake forces, must also be a priority
consideration in the fabrication and construction of greenhouses for Jamaican conditions.
2.0.0. Scope of Work
2.1 The goal of this project is to assist the Ministry of Agriculture (MOA), Rural
Agricultural Development Authority (RADA) and greenhouse growers in greenhouse
fabrication, alignment, construction and structural orientation. The contractor(s) are
expected to fabricate greenhouse structures as per engineering drawings and technical
specifications provided and undertake construction / erection, alignment and
orientation of greenhouses in accordance with the technical specifications provided
in the manual of “Jamaican Greenhouse Designs”.
2.2 The fabricated greenhouses shall meet minimum standards for hurricane and
earthquake resistance, and recommendations for mitigating damage due to these natural
events. The analysis should take into account material selection, dimension, shape,
orientation, joint details, fabrication and construction details, ventilation system and
temperature regulating features, and their suitability for economic production of crop
currently being produced in these buildings under Jamaican farming conditions.
17
Page 18 of 30
2.3 The greenhouse fabrication and construction contractor shall not be restricted to or be
required to carry out only those portions indicated on the drawings. Items not indicated
on the drawings but are required by specifications to complete the greenhouse in
accordance with hurricane and earthquake resistance and best standard practice, shall be
furnished and discussed with the contracting body and installed by the fabrication and
construction contractor, in accordance with minimum standards.
2.4 Examine solar energy as a possible power source for ferti- irrigation of Jamaican
greenhouses. Review and devise a workable and low cost solar energy system for use in
conjunction with the ferti-irrigation infrastructure recommended for the Jamaican
greenhouses.

PLASTIC DESCRIPTION
J A M A I C A N G R E E N H O U S E S D E S I G N S
I I C A
THREE SEASON PLASTIC 30% SHADDING
This product is a three layer Copolymer EVA with 200 micron thickness with a special
stabilization UV treatment based in Hals Polymers wich enable the film to last for three
agricultural seasons. This film also contains I.R additives with and high percentage EVA
giving a high thermal index to the product and excellent mechanical features.
Features and Uses
The film has specially designed for the roof tops of the greenhouses and high tunnels
with an outstanding reliability against degradation due to the effect of the UV radiation
and the use of chemicals inside the structures.
The package of special I.R additives and the high percentage of EVA are tasked with
Keeling the area of cultivation inside the appropriate climatic values as they are a
barrier against long wave I.R radiation ( between 7 μm and 13 μm), which is the heat
that flows from the Earth at night, keeping the heat inside the greenhouse and
preventing steep drops in temperature at night which could endanger the crop as well
as giving an extra source of heat to promote the earliness and yield of the crops.
This whole package of additives produces a whitish and glazing film with a high degree
of light diffusion preventing shades inside the greenhouse as well as protecting the crop
from direct sunlight.
Is because all of the above that this film is ideal for areas in which UV radiation is high
during sunlight and low temperatures at night with a minimum lifespan of three
agricultural seasons with an average insolation from 130 to 160 Klangeys provided
that chemicals are not overused.
