A Sinhala-language book on protected crop cultivation and greenhouse management, written by Upali J. Dias and published in Colombo by Godage International Publishers.
The subject sits in the practical agriculture category: growing under cover rather than in the open field, and the running of the structures that make that possible. Protected cultivation has expanded in Sri Lanka's up-country and intermediate zones, particularly for vegetables and cut flowers, and Sinhala-language technical writing on it is the form most growers and agricultural instructors actually work from.
The text is entirely in Sinhala, with no English translation. Readers who cannot read Sinhala script will not be able to use it. For those who can, it is the kind of title bought by smallholders moving into polytunnels and greenhouses, agriculture students, extension officers and anyone teaching the subject in Sinhala.
Godage is an established Colombo publishing house with a long list of Sinhala technical, educational and general titles, and books of this sort are a steady part of what it issues.
