Our Project Agroships via Aeroponics system with LED lighting is an example of the future of Agro business via one of our BCB (Beneficial Circuit Business)
Advanced hydroponics and aeroponics technologies can address the problems of contamination in fresh vegetables
"Vegetables cultivated at controlled environment facilities are healthy and safe since they are grown with optimum use of nutrients, fixed temperature and without outside contamination
Hydroponic farming is one efficient way to grow fruits and vegetables in small spaces without the use of soil. Instead of dirt, plants grow down into water, to which farmers have added the necessary nutrients for plant growth. These are then absorbed, along with water, through a plant’s roots. Light is provided either by the sun or specially designed grow lights, with many sustainable systems powered by renewable energy sources. Aquaponic farming incorporates fish into the soil-less system, using the closed-loop nutrient cycle from fish digestion to their advantage
“Aeroponics is the fastest way to grow plants,” says Anderson. “Harvest is less than 21 days for a head of lettuce. It’s about two times faster than traditional farming.”
indoor “vertical” farms—where plants are stacked in trays on shelves, instead of laid out horizontally across larger plots of land. In these high-tech structures, plants don’t rely on sunlight or soil, rainwater or pesticides, but LED lights and minerals instead. The goal of vertical farms isn’t just to save space; it’s also to find a more economical way of producing food for the growing population—and to reduce the costs and consequences of getting that food to where people actually live.
By a vote of 8 to 7, the National Organic Standards Board on Nov. 1 rejected proposals to make hydroponic and aquaponic production methods prohibited under the U.S.

Moonflower is in an industrial area about 15 miles south of downtown Houston, tucked away inside a relatively small, unassuming white shack. The small farm is housed in a 900-square-foot room with a 14-foot ceiling. There are hot-pink lights and a small irrigation system quietly feeding 20 varieties of micro-greens, which sprout up from a mineral-based substitute for soil called vermiculite. In Marques’s growing room, everything from the temperature to the lighting to the watering schedule has been engineered to replicate conventional outdoor farming, but without all the interruptions that plague it: seasonal changes, droughts, bitter cold, fires, and, of course, floods.
There’s Space City Farms, a backyard aeroponic vertical garden; Dream Harvest, a hydroponic system similar to Moonflower; and Acre in a Box, a literal take on the operation housed in a shipping container.

The first start-up accelerator was founded in Tel Aviv as recently as 2011. By late 2015, however, the city had accelerated like a Tesla — there were over 200 incubators and accelerators. Will we soon see incubators and accelerators outnumbering startups?
The wizardry spans defense electronics and augmented reality, biotech and solar photovoltaics, voice cloning and novel forms of farming such as aeroponics
What about Tech hubs in Africa? Are you in some of them? You can collaborate with us towards other Tech hubs in the world, specially in China and Middle East.
Based in Faribault, Living Greens Farm is one of the largest indoor farms in the world. The company uses a computer system to control elements such as light, temperature, humidity and CO2, combined with aeroponics—a method of growing plants by suspending their roots in the air—to grow lettuce, herbs and microgreens. Rather than using soil, plants are sprayed with a nutrient-rich solution.
Today the biggest crisis in farming in India is the lack of labour, low prices of produce, shortage of water and very poor soils.
It should be powered by solar energy and other renewable energy systems.
Agricultural containers would eventually be owned by restaurant owners.
the use of high-tech precision farming which could either be land-based or container-based. In container farming, all the inputs of farming are applied in an efficient way in enclosed shipping containers.
This will also generate huge employment opportunities.

Do you imagine all the new kind of Jobs will emerge with Reasonable Agro Tech 4.0 and specially in our AI, and IoT-IIoT projects, Heminemetics, Rexiology, Logometry linked to Agro 4.0? Do you have any ideas about relationing Africa fresh farming with Industry 4.0?
Everybody is in FOURTH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION ,what about matching IoT with IIoT via your own agro APP between China and/or Middle East with your African country?
On Feb. 22, Entrepreneurship & Investment For Africa (EI4A), a volunteer-run organization in Quebec promoting African entrepreneurship, held an open networking session at WeWork L’Avenue with PS Nutraceutical International Limited (PSNIL), one of Africa’s most innovative agribusiness start-ups based in Nigeria.
These technologies include hydroponics (growing plants in water), aquaponics (growing plants on water with fish in the water), and aeroponics (growing plants in the air).
“The technology is not new,” Okocha said. “Aeroponics was developed by NASA, but when the individual who invented the technology was contacted, he did not believe it could be used beyond growing leafy greens and vegetables.
Merging agriculture with technology is the key to increasing efficiency in the sector. For example, aeroponics technology allows plants to grow in the air without soil, and only requires minimal water usage. Additionally, in aeroponic greenhouses, plants can be grown on multiple layers of soil, while traditional farming is limited to only one. Okocha described the efficiency of the new agriculture technologies.
