Vertical farming
Vertical farming is an agricultural process where crops are grown stacked on top of each other indoors, allowing the growth conditions to be optimally controlled to improve both the yields and the quality of the products. It can take place in anything from a small shed or greenhouse to large facilities and warehouses.
Modern Greenhouse – Year-Round Vegetable Cultivation
Optimal use of space for cultivating various types of crops such as leafy greens, herbs, and berries all year round. AI technology and efficient irrigation and energy systems ensure both increased yield and quality. Suitable for both small and large installations.
New technology rapidly developing in Europe allows for the production of vegetables and berries 12 months a year, with far higher nutritional content than imported vegetables and berries. Local and short-traveled production that provides fresh vegetables.
Vertical farming is an agricultural process where crops are grown on top of each other indoors, allowing growth conditions to be optimally controlled to improve both the yield and the quality of the products. It can take place in anything from a small shed or greenhouse to large facilities and warehouse buildings.
The advantages are many:
- Larger yields
- Better quality
- Control the growth of key products
- Reduced soil degradation
- Fresh, locally sourced food year-round
- 90% less water usage
- No use of pesticides
- Increased nutritional value in vegetables
- Plants are grown with artificial light equivalent to daylight,
- Plants are grown in aeroponic systems,
- To grow faster and in the most nutrient-rich way, carbon dioxide, relative humidity, temperature, light intensity, and other parameters are regularly controlled
- Green leafy vegetables, microgreens are the most cultivated crops
- Completely isolated from the environment outside. Vertical farms are multi-level farms.
- Indoor cultivation is an innovative growing vertical within the horticultural industry. The technological advancements in indoor cultivation and vertical farming markets are highly progressive, driven by a global need for sustainable ways to grow fresh produce.
- Year-round high-quality yield, with a minimum of time, resources, and natural resources, is the new benchmark. This is achieved by using new sophisticated crop management technology that integrates all systems.
