Most everyone in North America has had this experience: we bought some produce only to have it go wimpy the very next day. The solution to this financial and food waste?

Indoor vertical farming.

Recently on Business Optimization, we had a chance to chat with Zale Tabakman, President at Local Grown Salads, about the problem, solution, and technology that inspired his business.

Zale discussed:

- Air quality technology in grow rooms

- Challenges and technological solutions to controlling air quality

- The logistical challenges behind North American produce

- The science behind growing plant muscle through indoor vertical farming
