VERTICAL FARM IN THE SERVICE OF SCIENCE

Arrow-home


ABOUT US

Overpopulation, the decrease of arable land, poor soil quality, and the
increasingly frequent occurrence of extreme weather have brought vertical farms
to life.

The advantage of vertical farms lies in their ability, with adequate automation,
to achieve 24-hour production. Production is chemical-free, and if the
technology is properly implemented, the products can be consumed without
washing, i.e., food-grade products can be manufactured. Thanks to their
controllability, it is easy to increase targeted content values, such as the
elevated vitamin C content in salads. Compared to conventional cultivation,
water consumption in vertical farms is up to 95% lower.


In the future, in addition to cultivating leafy vegetables, seedling production,
and strawberries, vertical farms can play a significant role in space research
and in feeding the astronauts of the future. The Orion Spacegeneration
Foundation and Csillagváros Ltd are collaborating to achieve this goal. The
development of vertical farms can contribute to the exploration of alien
planets; for example, this technology could ensure a stable food supply on Mars.




A COMMON FUTURE
­FOR VERTICAL FARMS
AND SPACE EXPLORATION

There are a number of crops that have already been tested in space. Currently
mainly for research, but in the near future also for human consumption. Plants
that mankind will have to take on extraterrestrial expeditions and colonisations
are already being cultivated today. These new plant varieties could justifiably
be called ‘colonisation plants’. The role of Csillagváros Kft. R&D vertical farm
goes beyond traditional plant cultivation.

Experiments with the cultivation of colonisation crops not only serve to
diversify food sources, but also help astronauts to have access to healthy and
nutritious food during long-duration space missions. Our colonisation crops,
although grown in terrestrial conditions, are very similar in cultivation
technology to the Veggie system used at the International Space Station (ISS).

Space vegetables and grains, which are also the basis of our research: pak choi,
wheat, cabbage, radish, lettuce, parsley, dill, basil, mizuna, romaine lettuce.
