Vertical Farming has been in and out of the news for a decade now. It used to be regarded as just another way to squeeze extra money out of wealthy hipsters looking for a cool new lifestyle product to tell their friends about. But massive cost reductions in renewable technology combined with some serious advances in technological efficiencies have brought vertical farming closer to the mainstream and now the big money is wading in to invest in these facilities in every major city around the world.



ERRATA : Hi Folks – as many of you have pointed out, I made a mistake when I said that Ultraviolet lights are used in vertical farms. In fact, it is not ultraviolet light - that would burn the plant. It's a mix of red and blue light, which is the part of the light spectrum that the plant absorbs. My apologies for this error.
