The problem in our region
Heat and water scarcity make open-field farming hard across most of the region, and fresh vegetables travel from far away.
The solution
Vertical farms inside shipping containers that control light, heat and water, growing vegetables in any climate, close to the people who eat them.
The proof
- A US$3 million deal in the UAE (2021); up to 98% less water than a typical farmSource ↗
