Abstract
Horticulture production in Malaysia is located mainly in the highlands. Further expansion in this area is not possible. Growers are having to move to the lowlands, but the particularly high temperatures and humidity make this area less favourable for greenhouse cultivation. A recent study by Wageningen UR Greenhoude Horticulture in the Netherlands however, demonstrated that greenhouse production is certainly possible in this area, if good use is made of technical possibilities.
