Newsletter #27 Vertical Farming
Personal nutrition, seeds, learnings, hop, ...........and more......
We are back from the holiday season. In this weeks newsletter we focused on only a few articles that we found interesting. Enjoy.
1. Vertical farming meets personalised nutrition for the ‘kitchen garden’ of the future
A new project wants to bring vertical farming and personalised nutrition into people’s homes by developing ‘kitchen gardens’ that meet individual dietary needs.
2. Planting the seeds for better vertical farm crops
As more farming moves indoors, researchers, startups and governments are trying to replicate the process. But instead of tweaking seeds so they are optimized for different weather and soil in the field, they are trying to create the best seeds for controlled-environment agriculture.
3. On the path to building Europe’s largest vertical farm
Planet Farms shares its journey to building Europe’s largest vertical farm. 4 key learnings.
4. The hops in this new craft beer were grown in an indoor farm
Climate change is making it harder to grow the key beer ingredient. So vertical farming company Aerofarms figured out how to grow hops, now being used for Goose Island’s new beer.
It would be highly appreciated if you could share the newsletter.
