Post# of 527
Advanced Container Technologies (OTC: ACTX), the exclusive U.S. distributor of GrowPods, is seeing interest in the environmentally controlled micro-farms that allow cultivation of ultraclean crops year-round. According to a recent article that contains excerpts from a GreenBiz piece titled, “How Vertical and Indoor Farming Can Supplement the Food Supply Chain,” innovators have developed new technologies such as indoor and vertical farms designed to supplement outdoor farming and solve the issue of limited cultivation land. The piece notes that “the systems often recirculate water, which can be more efficient than how water is used for other types of crops. Light and temperature can also be controlled, and since there is no exposure to pests, no chemistry is needed…. [The farms] can be built anywhere. That means food such as leafy greens can be grown closer to population centers.” Experts also believe that while indoor and vertical farming will not feed the world, it can supplement the supply chain. “These are only a few of the advantages that GrowPods, which are self-contained, automated, indoor micro-farms, offer users. These innovative containerized growing systems are designed with functionality and ease of use in mind. The pods are configured to optimize plant growth while minimizing labor; setup is quick and simple, no pesticides are needed, and the containers produce harvests all year long.”
