Vertical Agriculture (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781943141036)

Could we grow food in a different way? Could this be the agriculture of the future?
Imagine a new world where you are invited to develop a New Agriculture which takes into consideration all your background, combined with the ancestral and technological knowledge. Since this process is starting, you can be part of it, no matter your age, your knowledge or your location.
What if this proposal of agriculture could represent the future we want less chemicals, less resources, less damage to nature...
You have probably noticed that the weather is changing. Every time you hear about hotter days, heavy rains, intensive droughts, hurricane seasons, etc. In addition to this we have pollution, less biodiversity, less resources to feed the population.Because of this, it s quite possible that we have to make drastic changes on the way we grow food today if we want to guarantee food for the future.
Vertical Agriculture is a proposal to be more resilient and to adapt our world to climate change. It s an open invitation to re-think our agricultural processes where knowledge and technology are shared and not imposed.
This book will help you understand how be part of the change, providing future for new generations...
Twenty short chapters, including one specifically dedicated to the vision of Vertical Agriculture, will help you understand basic concepts on how grow food indoors, with or without technology.
There are fundamentals on solar energy, lighting, irrigation, alternative energies, rainwater harvesting, electricity and automation. This book is for anyone who wants to learn how grow food in the future and help in making a better world.
