The future of agriculture is ever-changing… And in the bid to feed the world by 2050 there are a number of key challenges, but also exciting opportunities. With an ever-rising global population, climate change, food security and working out how to produce enough nutrient-dense food for the masses are high priorities for the agriculture sector. These colossal world issues present many ...
Commercial indoor farming is traditionally labour and energy-intensive, but it doesn’t need to be… To create and maintain a successful commercial indoor growing enterprise, it is essential to balance all the inputs and outputs related to your business. This can often be a delicate and all-consuming task. As your operation develops it can be difficult to see where savings can be ...
Food security, nutrition and the future of farming are challenges that face us all, but with innovation and research, there are solutions at hand. Commercial indoor growing is a fast-paced and ever-evolving industry. And rightly so, if we have any hope of feeding growing populations with high quality, nutrient-dense food then we need to be looking beyond conventional farming and start embracing ...
Crop registration - an essential piece of the puzzle No matter how well controlled a growing environment is, environmental conditions are bound to vary from time to time. This can be due to the weather conditions in your natural climate, interactions between different plant species or even changes in your operational practices. It’s essential to gain knowledge and understanding of all of ...
Although these operations only enabled the most basic functions to occur, they demonstrated how feasible it was to grow plants in vertical structures and thus, for the first time in history, opened doors to the vast number of opportunities associated with space-optimised and controlled-environment food production in urban environments. Notably, ...
