The aeroponics technology is generally known for its efficiency, as it decreases water consumption by 95% compared to traditional farming techniques and enables year-round productivity.
Interestingly, the project boasts AI and automation at all production stages, deploying advanced monitoring systems and performance indicators to promote output.
Aeroponic farming is the growing of fruits and vegetables without the need for soil. The concept of soilless cultivation is based on suspending plants in a closed or semi-closed environment whilst spraying their dangling roots and lower stems with a nutrient-rich water solution.
