Following is the transcript of the video.
This robotic farm uses 90% less water than traditional farming.
According to the World Resources Institute, the world population will be 10 billion by 2050.
That’s 2.4 billion more mouths to feed than today.
That’s a challenge that start-up Iron Ox is tackling.
Iron Ox wants to create more sustainable farming by combining robotics and hydroponics.
Hydroponics is the process of growing plants without soil.
Brandon Alexander: There [are] multiple advantages of our approach to farming. With hydroponics, we can grow near consumption, near people. And with robotics, we can make sure that we’re getting a consistently, great product every week.
