15 Sustainable Farming Innovations

These sustainable farming innovations range from vertical smart city farms to stackable urban farm concepts.

Standouts include the 'Planty Cube,' a vertical farming structure developed by n.thing, an agriculture and IoT startup based in South Korea. The project is described as "a potential solution for cities to help them grow produce in small spaces." Another notable example is the 'Glasir' project by Framlab. The complex farming system consists of small growing modules that also allow users to grow food within compact spaces and is designed for congested cities.

Designers on Holiday's solar-powered chicken caravan rounds off this list and is a chicken coup designed for The Ecology Center in San Juan Capistrano, California. Crafted with convenience, safety and sustainability in mind, the chicken coup is an automated feeding solution that dispenses food during daylight hours while automatically closing for security at night.
