Description

By the year 2050, The Earth is expected to be populated by 9.000 million people. To be able to feed them, expert say that food production should increase by 60%. The ground area dedicated to this purpose should increase by 12% but this becomes a huge problem that needs to be dealt with if we do not want to further affect environmentally sensitive areas while fighting starvation.



In the search for solutions to all these issues combined, R&D around the globe is paving the way towards a better and larger food production. Vertical, urban and indoor farming projects are being developed in America, Europe and Asia. In Spain, BATCh is helping develop “Smart Green Cube”.



Pablo González-Bootello from BATCh discusses vertical urban farming and the future impact on urban cities.
