UK: ‘Vertical farming needs to match field grown crop cost prices'
“It’s an exciting time here at Fischer Farms, there’s a lot going on. Our second farm, which has 25.000m2 of growing space is now ready. Investment in automation, and the installation of robots, help us consolidate labour costs. We’re very pleased with how the farm is looking.” says Tristan Fischer, Founder and CEO of Fischer Farms, a UK vertical farming company.
