We often hear the term “conventional agriculture”, but with so many advancements in technology, farmers of all shapes and sizes are far from conventional compared to just a few decades ago. One of the newest trends in agriculture is growing food “vertically”. 80 Acres Farms, located in southwest Ohio, is taking that approach. They are the world's first fully automated indoor farm, capable of producing an abundance of crop varieties year-round. No soil, no pests and complete control of the environment 24/7. On the next Our Ohio Weekly, find out how vertical farming works and how it will fit into the future of American agriculture?
