"It’s the first agricultural system of its kind in the world and uses
no soil, pesticides, fossil fuels or groundwater. As the demand for
fresh water and energy continues to rise, this might be the face of farming in the future.
An international team of scientists have spent the last six years
fine-tuning the design – first with a pilot greenhouse built in 2010;
then with a commercial-scale facility that began construction in 2014
and was officially launched today."
wow, I hadn't heard of this before. Looks great!
