Vertical Farms
Vertical farms make food production more land efficient and are impervious to unreliable weather conditions.
Vertical farms are a relatively new technology with a great potential to disrupt one of the most crucial industries globally
Vertical farms use trays of hydroponic plants stacked in layers that are each lighted with LEDs inside spaces where temperature, humidity and other conditions are actively managed and optimised. They are part of a wider shift towards controlled environment agriculture.
Vertical farms have a number of environmental advantages compared to traditional farming and even greenhouses. They take up a fraction of the land since crops can be stacked on top of each other.
Moreover, water use is as much as 95% lower, fertiliser use is reduced by as much as 90% and pesticides are rendered irrelevant.

Why are vertical farms right for Affinity Tech?
By entering this nascent technology with a high growth potential at an early stage, we aim to see an appreciation in the value of our investments in to mid to long term as the technology is refined to compete with and replace other forms of farming.
Vertical farming is set to be of great value in countries such as those in the Middle East, where solar energy is widely used and most vegetables have to be imported. Moreover, vertical farms can also produce counter-cyclical crops that are usually imported, drastically reducing food miles.
This industry is set to grow as it addresses a number of global challenges simultaneously by adding value to end consumers. It is an economically viable way to reduce pollution and make people’s lives easier.

Ensuring sustainable food production is crucial to ensuring the future of the global population. Vertical farms provide reliable outputs that are resource-efficient and unaffected by changing climate conditions.
