Vertical Farming


1 comment:

  1. 1. BENEFITS: Grow enough food on your roof top or small farms (< 0.50 acres) to feed a family of 4 people organically and in an in-expensive manner!!
    2. THE CONCEPT: Demand for food is on the rise on one hand but land under cultivation is slowly reducing as farmers do not find farming lucrative anymore. Farming globally is carried out 2 dimensionally – length by breadth. Nature does farming in 3 dimensions. The third dimension is to go vertical!! Why not embrace this to augment production > 30 rimes within the same land area??!!
    It is ideal for urban agriculture and if well planned, a few cylinders can actually feed a family of four people through out the year!!
