Vertical farming, as opposed to horizontal farming, involves growing and harvesting crops on elevated shelves. Vertical farmers may grow substantially more crops on the same amount of surface with this technology, thus saving up on land space. On our vertical farming methods, we grow crops in stacked plant containers within tower-like platforms. These towers are essentially hydroponic systems intended to generate the ideal microclimate and enable farmers to produce any crops they like throughout the year. Vertical farming technique, however, requires controlled temperature, light, and moisture ..read more

If these trends continue, it will not only jeopardize our basic quality of life by diverting more spare funds to food, but it will also undermine our overall food security. Vertical farming, a technology-driven agricultural paradigm, may offer a means of addressing agriculture production a ..read more
