Climate‑Resilient Greenhouses: Country‑Specific Strategies for a Hotter, Drier, and Wilder Future

Extreme weather events are intensifying across the globe, but their impacts differ sharply by region. In this follow‑up to last year’s highly attended session on climate change and extreme weather, we dive deeper with a comparative look at four key horticultural regions: The Netherlands, Spain, Saudi Arabia, and Australia.
Experts will explore how climate change is reshaping growing conditions in each country and what greenhouse technologies, design adaptations, climate‑control strategies, and crop approaches are needed to remain productive and profitable. From heatwaves and drought in arid zones to storms, humidity stress, and shifting seasonal patterns in temperate climates, discover how each region can mitigate risks and build long‑term resilience.
Join us to understand how global climate volatility will affect the future of protected horticulture, and what region‑tailored innovations can help growers and investors stay ahead in an increasingly unpredictable world.
