Vertical Pastures Controlled Environment Growing Unit is utilising the very best hydroponic farming technology from the US, inside purposed built unit the size of a 40-foot refrigerated shipping container, that is equivalent to over 2 acres of traditional growing paddock. The unit is equipped with high-efficiency LED lighting that simulates sunlight and delivers growth-optimized spectrums of red and blue that plants need for photosynthesis and using as little as 19 litres of water a day, 4 times less than the average shower!
Intuitive climate controls automatically respond to air and water sensors to ensure an ideal growing environment. The containers can be monitored and controlled in real-time from any location. The added advantage is the closed environment keeps out unwanted organisms, eliminating the need for herbicides or pesticides. It means that 94% of crops are of marketable quality.
