Pepper Greenhouse Project in Turkey

Turkey splits into two pepper projects. On the Antalya–Mersin coast, plastic multi-span houses need screens, fogging and automated fertigation to hold quality through hot summers and mild winters. Inland, geothermal heat supports glass or double-poly complexes that produce coloured pepper through winter for Russian, EU and Gulf export.

That split drives CAPEX: a coastal upgrade project and a geothermal-heated glass complex can differ by a factor of three per hectare, and picking the wrong archetype for the site is the most common budgeting error.

Coloured blocky capsicum on a V-system training with substrate growing is the export standard; local-market projects often stay on soil with lighter climate control.

Direct answer

What does a pepper greenhouse cost per hectare in Turkey?

Indicative planning ranges run USD 320,000–1.5 million per hectare. Coastal plastic multi-span with screens and fertigation sits at the low end; geothermal-heated glass with CO₂ and full automation at the high end.

All figures are indicative planning ranges for feasibility work — not quotations. Final specification and pricing come from qualified suppliers and engineers.

Sweet pepper project FAQ — Turkey

Indicative planning ranges run USD 320,000–1.5 million per hectare. Coastal plastic multi-span with screens and fertigation sits at the low end; geothermal-heated glass with CO₂ and full automation at the high end.

Plan 90–220 tonnes per hectare per year. Heated substrate projects on a long coloured-pepper cycle reach the top of the band; unheated soil-grown coastal houses the bottom.

Antalya (Kumluca, Demre, Serik) and Mersin for unheated or lightly heated coastal production; the Afyon–Kütahya geothermal belt where cheap heat justifies winter export production.

Substantially. Cheap heat makes winter coloured pepper viable for export at prices that unheated coastal production cannot access, which is why inland CAPEX per hectare is higher but revenue per hectare is too.

Coloured blocky F1 hybrids — red, yellow and orange — selected for fruit weight, wall thickness and TSWV, PMMoV and powdery mildew tolerance under Mediterranean pressure.
