UW’s Controlled-Environment Agriculture Network signals a new institutional commitment to resilient food systems. Partnerships, applied research, on-site trials—this is how the science becomes field-ready.

Vertical farming in hospitals turns healthcare into a food producer. Reduces waste, cuts miles, and strengthens local nutrition security. A real step toward systems that heal.

AgTech isn’t just about tech—it’s about talent. The Bahamas’ new AgTech Pilot Cohort is proof that investing in people builds resilient food systems. Great to see nations training a generation ready to feed a changing planet.

Does High-Tech agriculture belong in the WEF's Food Future?
Thoughtful piece by our technology sister company @IntravisionGP on the role high tech agriculture can really play in systemic change.
TLDR: new technology should be integrated in systems thinking, even when it's not fully mature. Vertical farming and hydroponics still have hurdles to work out, above all that of finding sustainable, cost effective energy sources. But their potential to be "not a replacement, but a stabiliser" in an increasingly volatile and untenable food supply chain, "to conserve water, eliminate chemical inputs, and detach food production from volatile climates—all while enabling local, scalable food sovereignty" makes them worth including in food system initiatives.
Thanks @JDSiteman !
As precision and repeatability become essential in medicinal and nutraceutical crop production, so does the need for reliable research infrastructure. Enter PS2000. Designed with exactly this in mind—controlled environments deliver controlled outcomes. #CEA#Cannabis#PS2000
Been a 🕢 since cannabis headlines hit my inbox but this one from @villagefarms caught my eye. Perhaps @IntravisionGP research tools remain highly relevant here. Medicinal standardization and nutraceutical production are key & controlled conditions matter.

As @GrowGenCorp acquires @Viagrow1 and expands its retail reach, one thing is clear: demand for hydroponic substrates is booming.
Will tomorrow’s farms still rely on the same media sold at stores today?
We think there's room for innovation. 😉

Most hydroponic farms still rely on non-biodegradable substrates—a growing concern as demand and environmental scrutiny rise. At Intravision, we're tackling this with Nordic Substrate Solutions, developing biodegradable media for vertical farms and cucumbers. #CEA#Sustainability
Hydroponic grow media market projected to hit $10B+ by 2032—driven by sustainability claims and UrbanAg demand. Great. But about the enviro cost of peat, coir, and rockwool? Can sustainable farming depend on extractive materials?

A cannabis paper pulled us back into the light—literally. From sub-canopy yields to space-grown basil, we’ve been building tools for the big questions. New Substack on how the PS2000 came to be, and where it’s headed.

If we're serious about food safety, climate resilience, and domestic food security, we need to support tech that works—because field-grown romaine + shrinking oversight = predictable crisis. Who else is working on this? Let’s connect.

The @TheAtlantic piece on bagged lettuce & food safety is eye-opening. From field to packaging, the contamination risk is real—and regulatory oversight is shrinking. If you haven’t seen it, this @BoingBoing
summary breaks it down well.

A good reminder from our close friends at Intravision that we are still at the very beginning of what vertical farming technology can do for the world. In an industry with lots of short term ups and downs, it's easy to forget that bigger picture, which is why, at Elevate Farms, we remind ourselves everyday that this is a marathon with lots of short term sprints.

Encouraging findings from TUMCREATE on the role of #verticalfarming in future protein supply. Their research shows how CEA can boost yields while reducing impact—aligning with our mission at Intravision to advance sustainable food systems.

As the vertical farming industry faces renewed scrutiny, it’s essential to reflect—not just on where things went wrong—but on where real solutions are emerging.
