Vertical Farming

Vertical farming, the practice of growing crops in vertically stacked layers within controlled environments, aims to increase food production efficiency and sustainability. Current research emphasizes automation through robotics and AI, including computer vision for tasks like planting and harvesting, and the use of algorithms like higher-order dynamic mode decomposition for precise energy management and predictive modeling within these systems. This approach offers potential for significant improvements in resource utilization, reduced environmental impact, and enhanced food security, driving innovation in both agricultural technology and data-driven farming practices.
