Abstract: This is the first time a research that includes the growth of plants, environmental control and economic analysis of the production system of factory agriculture in a single large scale system has been carried out. We build three separate sub-models of the velocity of photosynthetic, environmental control and cost control. Next we construct a comprehensive dynamic model on the basis of three sub-models and the relations between them, and carries out simulation research in this way we obtain the optimum mode of comprehensive environmental control to simultaneously meets the two requirements of better control and lower cost under different external weather conditions.

Key words: factory agriculture, simulation, environmental control, model
