The Industrial Applications of Membrane Humidifier – Food and Beverage Storage, Agriculture and Vertical Farming Industry rely heavily on precise humidification systems. ...
The agricultural sector is at a critical stage. With the global population projected to reach nearly 10 billion by 2050, the demand for food is increasing rampantly. At the same time, there is mounting pressure to adopt sustainable farming practices to protect our planet’s limited resources. This delicate balance between increasing food production and minimizing environmental impact ...
Agriculture has been the backbone of human civilization for generations, providing the essential resources needed for survival and growth. As global populations continue to rise, the demand for food production has never been greater. Traditional farming methods, once sufficient, are now struggling to meet the demands of modern food production. New-age techniques in crop management provide ...
The system handles irrigation scheduling, monitoring, and adjustments, allowing farmers to focus on other important farm tasks. d. Data-Driven Decision Making: The controller collects and analyzes data from various sensors, providing valuable insights into soil moisture levels, weather patterns, and crop water requirements. ...
Farmers constantly pursue innovative technologies to improve crop quality and yield in today’s ever-evolving agricultural landscape. Ozone systems have emerged as a game-changing solution in agriculture, offering myriad benefits. The ozone process not only purifies water and improves yield but also prevents mineral deposits from forming in pipes, leaving no chemical residue. This ...
Moreover, when compared to soybean production, BSF farming can yield significantly higher amounts of protein. To put it into perspective, cultivating 1 ton of protein using soy requires 1 hectare of land, whereas with vertical farming of black soldier flies, the same amount of land can yield 100-150 tons of protein. Unlocking the ...

The use of gas sensors in agriculture can greatly assist food production and is paramount on many farms within a number of different applications.For example, carbon dioxide concentration monitoring is essential for pig and poultry farming during gas stunning. ...
Ozone in vertical farming is an excellent organic fungicide and biocide. In addition to its high efficiency and the advantages of not leaving chemical residues on the leaves. ...
Vertical Farming Technology Vertical farming is the practice of producing food in vertical layers using indoor farming techniques and controlled-environment agriculture technology, where many environmental factors can be controlled. ...
Countries Around the World are Investing in Vertical Farms Many projects have demonstrated the advantages of vertical farms in pilot projects, prototypes, and at commercial production levels. ...
How do you monitor EC/PH and temperature and humidity while also keeping all of the information synced and easy to read? The UbiBot GS2 EC and PH value monitoring device is specifically designed for the agricultural hydroponic industry. Through the connection of an external EC or PH probes, the readings can be monitored as well as displayed on the large LCD screen for an instant view. After ...

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 ...
“You could best divide our products and services into three parts, being: external research and in-house contract research in our R&D labs, providing total indoor farming solutions, and collaborating in research projects,” explains Maarten Vandecruys, co-founder and CTO at Urban Crop Solutions ...
There is a widespread misconception that the taste of vegetables is solely based on genetics of the plant species and cannot be enhanced by cultivation techniques or environmental conditions. That would be true in a scenario where other cultivation parameters were universally normalised. However, this is rarely the case when it comes to indoor vegetable production facilities. The cultivation ...
When the pioneering vertical farms were established around the world, comparatively basic first-generation technology used created relatively inefficient systems compared with today. ...
There are many reasons why a government or international organization may advocate the introduction of urban indoor farming. This week we look at some of the main motivations for bringing agriculture closer to the consumer. While urban indoor agriculture may have seemed a far-fetched dream in the past, developments in city planning and technological innovation are making it into a reality. These ...
The project is managed by the CDVTA, Community Development Volunteers for Technical Assistance, in collaboration with the Association for Vertical Farming and aims to improve the lives of rural farmers in North West Cameroon by developing local skills and knowledge. ...
