The Vertical Farming Landscape: Navigating Through Challenges 🌿💡 Once hailed as the future of agriculture, Vertical Farming is facing its share of turbulence. Innovators like AeroFarms have hit hard times, filing for bankruptcy amidst a climate of economic strain and operational challenges. But, it's not just AeroFarms; the industry is witnessing a wave of reassessment as companies grapple with the realities of scaling up and sustaining profitability. Yet, this is a story of resilience and evolution. The journey of vertical farming is not about the fall but about the rise after. As the sector adapts, focusing on both technological innovation and deep agricultural know-how, there's a silver lining. The vision of growing food more sustainably and securely remains strong. At GENAWIF – Society for Natural Compound- and Drug Research, we see parallels in our own journey. Founded in 2020, we delve deep into the wonders of allicin, a natural substance with potent antimicrobial properties and a broad spectrum of biological effects. Like vertical farming, we believe in the transformative power of innovation in nature. Our mission to understand and harness the molecular and cellular actions of natural substances for medical and agricultural applications mirrors the adaptability and forward-thinking needed in today’s challenging times. We're committed to advancing research, fostering scientific collaboration, and bridging the gap between nature's potential and practical applications. As the vertical farming sector seeks a new path forward, we too are on a quest to uncover and apply the secrets of the natural world for a healthier, more sustainable future. 🌍 Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/ebSn_2fP #GENAWIF #VerticalFarming #Agriculture #Sustainability #AllicinResearch #NatureMeetsScience #FutureOfFarming #Resilience

Last week Sept 30th / Oct 1st the World AgriTech Innovation Summit took place in London. Our joint team of BASF Agricultural Solutions and of xarvio® Digital Farming Solutions had great discussions with business partners and peers in the industry. With two very interesting panel discussions with Neil Kay and Konstantin Kretschun we could address which solutions we as BASF bring to farming and society in terms of agricultural resilience and sustainable farming and enhanced ROI. The main topics of the summit were about Climate Smart Agriculture, the role of Remote Sensing and Earth Observation to work towards higher and sustained yield but also to inform politics in changes of production pattern through war and climate change, Scope 3 and carbon taxes, enhanced breeding and genomics but also the upcoming role of GenAI and ML in general to make farmers and agri-consultants smarter in their decision making.   #xarvio #digitalfarming #ForTheLoveOfFarming
