By 2050, around 6.3 billion people will live in ci By 2050, around 6.3 billion people will live in cities. 🌆 As the effects of global warming intensify, weather conditions and natural disasters are already threatening our food security. With that said, one thing is clear: to feed the future population, something needs to change.🧐 Controlled environment agriculture (CEA) – especially vertical farming – is literally taking farming in a new direction. Research already shows that stacking crops inside protected, highly efficient systems saves water and secures year-round production. The best part? A vertical farm could very well function in a city warehouse. 🌾 Leaning into this solution, researchers at the @agricultural_university_athens recently explored how vertical farms perform, how they use resources, and what role they could play in building sustainable food systems.

When it comes to phosphorus in our soil, balance i When it comes to phosphorus in our soil, balance is crucial. 🤐 Too much of it can pollute the water, while deficiencies make for less fertile soil. Farmers and scientists all around the world are asking the same question: how can we regulate phosphorus levels without relying entirely on man-made fertilisers? Dr Bettina Eichler-Löbermann and other researchers at the @unirostock are investigating not one, but three solutions that could create a better, more secure future for agriculture around the world.
