fasteners, and an agro shade net (50%). The length and width of the shade net can be any size based on the area available and the height will be 8½ feet. The G.I pipes are grouted to the terrace if it is to be on a terrace or can be fixed on the ground with proper concrete foundation if it is to be on an open yard. The space between two adjacent G.I. columns is 10 feet. A simple door is required to be provided at any one convenient place of the structure. The dimension of the door is 1.2 × 1.8 m (W × H). The entire G.I structure is covered with a 50% agro shade net with fasteners. The containers, such as grow bags, pots, and rectangular trays, can be placed inside the shade net.
