Vertical Farming

Overview

Vertical farming uses controlled indoor environments to grow crops in vertically stacked layers. It uses 95% less water than traditional farming, requires no pesticides, and can operate year-round regardless of weather. LED lighting, hydroponics, and AI-driven climate control maximize yields. While energy-intensive, pairing with renewable energy makes it increasingly sustainable. Vertical farms near urban centers reduce transportation emissions and food waste. The market is projected to reach $20 billion by 2028.
