Indoor Farming Automation

PSR: Automation
Sectors: Food and Farming

In land-scarce Singapore, we currently depend heavily on imported food. With limited land for farming, we have to look at ways to expand production capability, boost yield and improve productivity of farming. Hence, an urban farming innovation: indoor farming automation. With the help of technology, a fully automated farming system eliminates any need for human involvement after seed planting, allowing fresh produce to be harvested all year round.

Potential Applications Automated seeding
Automated transplanting
Automated harvesting
