Reducing inputs
As 95% of the water used is recycled it uses a fraction of the water required for field irrigated crops with no runoff.
All aspects of the environment – atmosphere, irrigation, level of lighting, humidity and temperature – can be calibrated to the crop to maximise production efficiency, and the system uses less energy than conventional vertical farming systems. For example, it uses 50% less LED lighting and requires 50-75% less space. This results in significantly higher output compared to static hydroponic vertical farming methods.
