As believers of big, bold solutions that will help feed 9+ billion people, Thought For Food is very excited about the potential of vertical farming to help feed the world’s growing urban population. It offers some amazing water-saving technologies like hydroponics and aquaponics, as well as control over variables such as lighting and atmospheric content. At the same time, Vertical Farming can perform as decentralized agriculture in and around cities, thus guaranteeing a consistent supply of fresh food in the face of a changing climate.
If you are interested in the future of farming you may win $5,000 and a trip to Amsterdam to present your vertical farming ideas. At the same time, our partners Illumitex and Association for Vertical Farming will be hosting educational webinars to share industry knowledge about irrigation systems, lighting, crop selection, and financial feasibility.
Please let me know if you have any questions - the deadline to apply is March 30th.
