The up-and-coming solution
When it is difficult to find space to build more houses and offices, we automatically build upwards; we build skyscrapers. Now, some farmers are farming upwards too.
What is vertical farming?
Vertical farms save space by growing plants inside buildings on specially designed racks. Each rack can hold many plants and this increases the amount of food produced.
The technology that makes it possible
Hydroponics is a system where special water is given to the plants; water which contains everything the plant needs to grow. In traditional farming, plants grow in the ground but in vertical farms plants grow in pots and are only fed with special water. Some farmers have racks attached to elevators. Because the elevators are always moving, the plants are always moving too. In this way the plants receive lots of sunlight and grow better.
The benefits
Vertical farming works well because farmers have full control of the growing conditions. They control temperature, food and water; so vertical farmers can grow crops all year long and almost anywhere in the world. Furthermore, vegetables grown in the city do not have to be transported as far to reach the shops. This means the food is delivered fresher and with less transport, so there is less pollution.
