Vertical farming or CEA (Controlled Environement Agriculture) is a method of growing plants in vertically stacked layers using controlled agriculture techniques such as hydroponics, aeroponics and aquaponics. It enables the year-round production of fresh produce indoors, regardless of climate or geographical location.
In the HERBEUS Vertical Indoor Farm, several levels are stacked on top of each other to form efficient plant towers, so that the green tiny plants can grow sustainably, all year round, resource-efficiently and undisturbed in a completely controlled environment on 2,000 m².
The advantages of vertical cultivation include space efficiency, resource
The advantages of vertical cultivation lie in space efficiency, resource conservation, climate resilience, the possibility of year-round and local production as well as in the adaptation, optimization and control of the plant environment, not to mention the lower carbon footprint by reducing long-distance transport.
Vertical farming thus reduces the development of new farmland, prevents deforestation forest clearance, soil degradation and further environmental pollution. The effects of the weather are eliminated and chemical pesticides can be dispensed with 100% in indoor cultivation.
At HERBEUS, each leaf is served a customized light recipe with extremely low power consumption
so that the mini plants mature with a particularly intense flavor. The water consumption
in the plant tower is 90% lower than in field cultivation. Local year-round cultivation
year-round cultivation adds another ecological advantage: our short delivery routes, with a low
CO2 footprint.
The vertical indoor concept is therefore not only good for the environment, it also solves
some of the major challenges facing agriculture and provides security of supply for our society in times of
