PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase yield, reduce heating cost and an incidence of injured fruit, and improve taste of fruit.SOLUTION: A cultivation device comprises: cradle means 4 for arranging crops (strawberries S) of fruit M as agricultural products and fruit heating means 2 for heating the vicinity of at least part of fruit M to a temperature higher than that of atmosphere. It is preferable that the cradle means 4 has height enough that a standing or sitting operator can work appropriately when the crops (strawberries S) are arranged thereon. The fruit heating means 2 comprises warm water pipe for circulating warm water inside of which the temperature is higher than that of atmosphere inside. A heat dissipator 7 is arranged in the outer periphery surface of the warm water supply means, within the range in which fruit is produced while the heat dissipator is heatedly contacted and crown heating means 6 for heating the crown of crops to a temperature higher than that of atmosphere or culture media.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】収量増大や暖房費の削減、障害果の発生率低減や果実の食味の改良を図る。【解決手段】果実Mが農産物として収穫される作物(イチゴS)を配置する架台手段4と、少なくとも一部の果実Mの近傍を雰囲気温度よりも高い温度に加温する果実部加温手段2とを設けた。好ましくは、架台手段4が、作物(イチゴS)を設置した際に立位又は座位の作業者が適正に作業ができる高さを有し、果実部加温手段2が雰囲気の温度よりも高い温度の温水を内部に流通させる温水パイプ手段を備え、その外周面には、放熱体7が熱的に接触状態で果実が結実する範囲に配置され、作物のクラウン部を雰囲気や培地の温度よりも高い温度に加温するクラウン部加温手段6が付設される。【選択図】図1
