THE CHALLENGE
Talent Shortage and Resource Constraints
In the urban farming industry, extensive manpower is required due to the critical task of handling crop movement and the need to ensure optimal condition to facilitate plant growth. Relying solely on manual labor for these tasks presents challenges and the magnitude of the workforce requirements can be overwhelming.
THE SOLUTION
Automate delivery and transfer of crop trays with real time monitoring of environmental parameters.
Urban indoor farms are reducing the heavy reliance on manual labour by automating the delivery and transfer of crop trays, while sensors and monitoring devices can provide real time data on environmental parameters, allowing human resources to focus on more specialised tasks that require human judgement and expertise.
