Vertical farms: The technology that will revolutionize agriculture – Pplware

With the shortage of work ever to be higher and an aging population increasingly faster, it becomes difficult to produce enough food for the world population.

So, born in Japan the “ Vertical Farm ” or Vertical Farms that rely on the “robot run”, ie a robot manipulation that will reach nearly every step of the lettuce cultivation process, from irrigation to harvesting.

This farm will be built in Kyoto and will begin production in mid 2017. it is estimated that produces 30,000 heads of lettuce a day, and five years, raise that number to 1 million lettuce feet per day.

Our farm is a model for other farms, our goal is not to replace the farmers, but to develop a system where farmers and machines work together.

we want to spark an interest in agriculture, especially in younger

“Vertical Farm” increases efficiency in food production, reduces energy costs by 1/3 due to the use of LED lighting part of the growth process of lettuce. 98% of the water used in irrigation is recycled and, especially in an increasingly contaminated planet, the “ vertical farm ” will certainly improve, and the quality of food because they are not sensitive to changes in the weather and environmental conditions. These are the 5th still protected from contamination of food and pesticides.

in an area as important as agriculture, technology to help and to innovate to better ensuring that we eat a food free of pesticides and contamination.

Hopefully more “Vertical farms” producing other foods and, for now, leave a thanks to technology.
