Growing Demand for Container-Based Vertical Farming
The key advantages of container-based farming are that the entire operation of crop production is done in a container, making it simple to transport and requiring less land. In comparison to single-level agricultural land, this method of cultivation offers roughly eight times as much growing space, extending the time during which a city's food security is guaranteed.
For instance, in November 2021, Bowery Farming built urban vertical farms, based on NASA's data-driven model, built into existing structures such as vacant warehouses.
Lighting will be the Key Component
In order to support vertical farming, the lighting system includes LED lights, pink lights, grow lights, grow light ballasts, grow light reflectors, and other kinds of artificial cultivation lights which save operating expenses and limit power usage. LED lighting systems are becoming more and more popular. LED lighting systems produce less heat than traditional light sources, making them perfect for agricultural settings.
