In this study, a hot water pipe and a blowing fan were combined for developing zone heating technology for cherry tomato. The concept of this system was that hot air was firstly made by hot water pipe in one layer plastic duct and then a blowing fan made the hot air formed in a duct discharge through a duct hole to a shoot apex or a flower cluster which was temperature-sensitive part of cherry tomato. This system mainly consisted of hot water boiler, thermal tank, heat radiation plastic duct with the function of moving up and down electrically depending on the height of shoot apex. Developed system was applied to the cherry tomato greenhouse located in Jangam Chungcheongnamdo from Dec. 28, 2015 to Feb. 16, 2016 and compared with conventional entire space heating system of cherry tomato greenhouse and looked into cumulative yield for the estimate of growing state and energy saving rate from the conventional consumed energy. The result showed that cumulative yield was 3% higher and consumed energy was 32% lower than those of control greenhouse. The average temperature of shoot apex zone was 0.4~1.1℃ higher and the average relative humidity of shoot apex zone was 2,2~2.3% lower than those of entire space during night time in a shoot apex zone heating greenhouse and the average temperature of shoot apex zone was 0.7~1.4℃ lower and the relative humidity of shoot apex zone was 2.9~8.3% higher than those of entire space during night time in a entire space heating greenhouse.
