Summary
The effect of different shade levels on sweet pepper production was investigated. The shade levels were 40, 55 and 63%, achieved by placing black polyprobolin nets on solid iron framed tunnels (7.5 m width X 40 m long and 2.5 m high) provided by Tildent Co. Shading increased plant height, leaf area, plant fresh and dry weight, total yield and fruit quality and reduced the number of nonmarketable fruits. The highest number of fruits (17/plant) and yield (562 g/plant) were obtained with 40% shade under field conditions in the Kafr El-Sheikh area in the north of Egypt. [AS]
