Potato growing uses intensive soil cultivation and very large inputs of inorganic nutrients, herbicides, fungicides and insecticides. Large amounts of energy are also used in cooled store to prevent post-production sprouting prior to consumer use. This result in continuous degradation of farm soil organic matter, and large emissions of CO2 and N2O, two ma...

An innovative consortium - Light Science Technologies, Morrish Engineering and Zenith Nurseries - will develop and technically assess a turnkey, mobile LED Grow-Lighting cloche/rig, with inbuilt crop husbandry automation, for precision soil-based growing and resource optimisation within Polytunnels and Glasshouses. Through advanced lighting recipes and re...

Vertical Farming(VF) has been branded as the future of Food Production due to the environmental benefits and food security benefits (small geographical footprint, pesticide-free, water reuse, all year round growing) of the growing process. However, the industry is in its infancy and littered with inefficiencies(high energy/labour costs, limited crop choic...
