Terra-Mars Launches On Indiegogo To Reduce Agriculture Footprint

Innovative indoor vertical farm, Terra-Mars, officially launches through a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to help reduce agriculture footprint without sacrificing access to quality food

The team behind Terra-Mars have taken their pursuit of creating sustainable farming a notch higher with the launch of a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo for the project. Terra-Mars is the first-of-its-kind indoor, aquaponic, vertical farm designed to supply growers with fresh produce, including fruits and vegetables, as well as fish in any landscape while reducing the agriculture footprint. 

Agriculture has evolved over the years as more solutions and practices emerge to help meet the increasing demand for food amidst growing global population. Unfortunately, this also has affected the planet negatively as cities and farms take over the landscape, even as natural resources and habitats for several species continue to deplete. Consequently, there is a need to find a balance between the growing demands of civilization and maintaining the diversity of natural landscapes, which is where Terra-Mars might just be saving the planet.

Terra-Mars leverages the vertical, multipurpose food production system, aquaponics, to combine aquaculture and cultivating plants in water, ultimately delivering a self-sustaining solution suitable for any grower. The solution is particularly unique as it integrates Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning to monitor the system and control water, air, light, and nutrient levels.

Other features and benefits of Terra-Mars is that it offers a balanced ecosystem ideal for the survival of fish and plants, using 10% of the space that would be taken by traditional agriculture with the same crop yield. It also uses 95% less water and requires no pesticides or herbicides. The system is so versatile that it has the potential to be taken to Mars when colonization becomes a reality. 

The Indiegogo campaign aims to raise funds for the production and distribution of the revolutionary Terra-Mars.
