Tweetable Quotes
"Vertical farming is definitely really important. The existing businesses, the existing farmers, growers, they can't increase production to that extent. This is a growth industry."
“Large corporations are all thinking about global changes. A lot of farmers are starting to flex their business around energy pricing. You've got to really work harder and find a solution that enables you to use the energy all day and all night, because the capital cost of the facilities are so large."
