The Vertical Farm: Feeding the World in the 21st Century

*The Vertical Farm: Feeding the World in the 21st Century* explores how skyscraper-like farms can grow food efficiently using controlled environments indoors. These vertical farms stack plants vertically, saving space and reducing the need for traditional farmland, pesticides, and long-distance transportation. By using advanced technology like LED lighting and hydroponics, farms can produce fresh produce year-round in urban areas, helping to address food security and sustainability challenges. The book suggests vertical farming is a innovative solution to feed a growing global population while minimizing environmental impact.
