The development level of greenhouse cluster, as an important symbol of agricultural modernization, is increasingly going to be a complex and large-scale system that not only needs to increase the capacity of greenhouse clusters, but also take into account the utilization of regional resources. However, traditional regulation methods exit shortcomings in the efficient use of regional resources, and the existing control theory has been unable to fulfill the requirements of above objectives. Therefore, firstly, this paper analyzes the characteristics of greenhouse cluster control from the perspective of hierarchical control system; then the various coordinated control system description models and control structure models in the current greenhouse cluster control system are discussed in detail. Finally, from the application research aspect, the essential characteristics of hierarchical control in greenhouse clusters are revealed. It's a great theoretical value for establishing a greenhouse cluster coordination description model and a greenhouse cluster control structure model based on complex system theory.
