Excited to share my first article in @Newsweek!

Just as indoor ag–tech is making it possible for farmers to feed our growing population more efficiently, the same tech can be applied to feeding the earth's billion cows locally and sustainably.

What We Feed Cows Could Be a Significant Key To Fighting Climate Change https://t.co/NRRfPpC3mq Written by @dave_dinesen of @cubicfarms

Fact: Indoor farming is capable of sustainably feeding our growing population.

But to do so, it must continue to adapt and innovate. Read my latest LinkedIn newsletter about the innovations that are coming up next: https://t.co/AYDA7jmraI

DYK you can wash 17 loads of laundry with the energy it takes an average indoor farm to produce 1 kg of food?

Don’t worry, it won’t be that way for long. Read my latest LinkedIn newsletter to see how we’re making ag–tech more sustainable.

As summer hits, many states like #California are struggling with #drought and water insecurity.

It's a great reminder that we need to support local, sustainable agriculture to help farmers and ranchers feed our growing world.

Interesting stats from @McKinsey about American grocery shopping trends.
The #1 priority for survey respondents? Buying local.

What choices are you making differently this year?

Perspectives on food production have shifted a lot over recent generations. I’m curious to hear what my Twitter network thinks:

Who cares more about where their food comes from?

[Canadian Tech Journal @cdntechjournal]

🌱By using automated indoor modular technologies, @CubicFarms empowers local chain agriculture.

Now, the company has more ammunition after NTE Discovery Park agreed to buy 26 CubicFarms modules for $4.4 million and manufacture them too.

So great to see EcoDairy, an early adopter of agritech that uses @HydroGreenInc on their farm, featured in a recent article by the @VancouverSun.

Have you seen the latest @AgFunder data snapshots?

Venture funding in ag-tech has nearly doubled from 2020 to 2021, which shows that people are really taking it seriously.

Do you think we're on track to see another jump this year?

@Curious80891460 @agfundernews @CubicFarms Our data is for operating usage, not manufacturing. We’re benchmarking our energy usage compared to the results reported by other vertical farms surveyed globally. If you’re interested, more details can be found here: https://t.co/8NVkFN74nT

[Dave Dinesen @dave_dinesen]

Ag–tech has an exciting opportunity to improve, and I’m featured in @agfundernews to address it.

We’ve taken countless steps towards sustainable farming. Reducing energy use is next. That’s why @CubicFarms is being more transparent about ours.

We’ve all become acquainted with food inflation lately, and I’m wondering what habits are changing because of it.

What foods have you been buying less of because of increased prices?

I love this example of why you need to communicate the "why" behind your purpose.

It's what motivates people to keep going and gives them a reason to invest in your mission.

Great reminder from @lizandmollie.

[Ravi Kahlon @KahlonRav]

#Agritech ensures we’re prepared for the future 🌱

In vertical farming 1 acre of land can = 100 acres worth of crops, which means local growers feed local people🥗
