In addition to population growth
Climate change will degrade the current land-based system’s ability to produce food. As weather patterns change, land-based yields will too.

Need to feed a lot of human in the next few decades. The systems we have for food production are incapable of meeting the growing global population. To avoid significant societal issues, we need to a new approach.

Environmental damage

If we fail to develop a new approach, humanity is at risk of over-farming (and destroying) arable land, failing to feed the population healthy food, and destroy natural resources that can’t be easily recovered (such as water systems).

Climate refugees

All of this points to a potentially existential threat to humanity, connected directly to our ability to feed ourselves. In the medium term, climate refugees will challenge civilized society with the large volumes of people displaced and needing support exceeding any migration caused by wars.

Social Fragility

Society is shockingly fragile when basic needs (food/water) are not met.
WE NEED A PARADIGM SHIFT — FROM LAND-BASED FARMING, TO URBAN VERTICAL FARMING.
— Let’s us grow year-round, in stable conditions, with low land usage and capable of being located in urban areas with high populations.
—Eliminate the needs for use of pesticides and herbicides. Allows optimal use of water.
— Fully automated to eliminate 90% of labor costs, increase consistency of production, and guarantee high quality produce.
— Allows production to save costs from transport, and environmental impact of carbon emissions from that transport.
Technology is the key
We use state of the art technology to save our food production. Fully automated, our facilities only require low amounts of labor for maintenance. Thereby, we cut operational costs to the minimum and enable high efficiency. By design, they are optimised for urban locations at the point of distribution.

Vertical Farming vs. Greenhouse Farming
When starting a farming operation, the first choice you face is what type of farm to start. The options are many: indoor vs. outdoor; arable vs pastoral; intensive vs. extensive. For farmers going the indoor route, one of the biggest decisions is b[...]
