One of the things that has been done in the world is the implementation of vertical farming inside 20-foot and 40-foot containers, which has not been done in Iran before. The Radrish company did this last year, and the system that implemented vertical farming inside a 40-foot cube container.
The main secret of this work is related to the set points of temperature, light, irrigation, humidity, and carbon dioxide.
But another important part is the feeding of the system, which is one of the secrets of the companies and is completely secret.
Because this agricultural model is completely independent of external climatic conditions, the artificial light given to this system determines the day and night of the plant. By adjusting them, we can increase the cultivation period to 15 days, meaning we can harvest our vegetables within 15 days.
From all this, it can be concluded that there is no other way without automatically controlling the system. This is where the importance of industrial automation or greenhouse automation in the topic of vertical farming becomes personal.
