Vertical Farming
When you think of farming, your first thought probably isn’t storage. However, with vertical farming taking the world by storm with its wide range of benefits, we’re here to help you get set up!
How Does Vertical Farming Work
Vertical farming is a modern agricultural technique that involves growing crops in vertically stacked layers. It is an innovative and sustainable solution to the challenges of traditional farming for many reasons:
- It requires less water
- It requires less energy
- It produces significantly less waste
- No need for soil, sunlight or pesticides
Vertical farming is also great for making use of indoor environments, such as warehouses, to grow crops in controlled environments. Consequently, this means fresh and nutritious food can be produced year-round for a reliable source of healthy food and the farms can be built in more convenient locations to reduce the distance that food needs to travel.
