What's The Problem With The Agriculture Supply Chain?
In this blog, we'll explore the problems with the agriculture supply chain, explain what's caused this development, and explore how innovative options like hydroponic shipping container farms can solve some of the problems inherent to the system.
Freight Farms Case Study: Gourmet Caterers
Gourmet Caterers introduced an on-site container farm to start growing fresh, nutritious, and flavorful ingredients every week and reduce their reliance on inconsistent food imports.
Vertefarm: A Revolutionary Hydroponic Micro Plant Factory for In-Home Gardens Launches With Smart Control App
Vertefarm utilizes cutting-edge vertical surface planting and root cyclic drip irrigation technologies to ensure healthy plant growth by providing ample contact with both water and air.
Water's Journey: Inside a Hydroponic Container Farm
In this blog, Pure Green we'll describe the journey that water takes through a hydroponic system like ours, from the second it enters the unit to the minute it exits.
Benefits of Stackable Hydroponic Containers for Urban Farmers
In this article, we'll examine how stackable container farms can provide space-efficient commercial-level hydroponic production anywhere with a stable power and water hookup.
How Container Farming Benefits Correctional Facilities
Hydroponic container farms offer a unique solution by providing inmates hands-on training in an engaging and therapeutic environment. This blog explores how this sustainable and efficient farming technique can contribute to breaking the cycle of recidivism.
FarmAnywhere Introduces Lifetime Warranty for ALL Container Farms: An Industry First CEA
FarmAnywhere's extensive warranty covers every part of our container farms, from the structure to the advanced climate control systems, the state-of-the-art irrigation setup and more.
Renewably powered aeroponic farms can significantly reduce the environmental impact of fresh produce compared to imports, new study finds.
Aeroponic container farms are a new method of farming that use a soilless technique to grow crops in a controlled environment. This method involves suspending the plant roots in a nutrient-rich mist, which helps to optimise crop growth and reduce water usage.
A School Uses a Freight Farm for FFA Programming and Agriculture Education
Lessons on the parts of seeds, plants, and flowers and their functions and on plant reproduction are intermixed with students being tasked with identifying careers around plant science.
Freight Farms Raises $17.5M Series B3 to Address Access and Sustainability in the Food System Through Container Farming
This funding will help the hydroponic container farming company expand its customer base and increase reach of its farms to more remote areas and urban centers
Traditional & vertical farm to partner on their road to Net Zero
Two long-standing farming families have joined forces to realise their ambition to reach Net Zero by using traditional methods supported with cutting-edge technology, including an onsite vertical farm powered by solar panels.
Auburn University Department of Horticulture's Freight Farming Program
The two Freight Farms at Auburn University are a part of the college's horticulture program. They live in the Transformation Garden, an open-air classroom that is a beautiful spot on campus for all students to enjoy and learn.
How Can Greenhouses, Vertical Farms & Container Farms Work Together?
CEA is importantly not the answer to all the systemic problems in food production, but it is a powerful method that adds much needed resilience into supply chains, as the climate across the globe changes.
Freight Farms Partners with Biosphere 2 to Pioneer the Future of Indoor Agriculture
Biosphere 2 is turning to Freight Farms to further novel research on creating a circular economy of food production, its benefits and the role of vertical farming
Pinduoduo launches vertical farming challenge for 3rd Smart Agriculture Competition
Participating teams in the Pinduoduo Smart Agriculture Competition will compete to produce lettuce in shipping containers, using technology including LED lighting, crop modeling, and algorithms to control input variables.

How to overcome GNSS limitations with RTK correction services
Although GNSS offers ubiquitous coverage worldwide, its accuracy can be hindered in some situations - signals can be attenuated by heavy vegetation, for example, or obstructed by tall buildings in dense urban canyons. This results in signals being received indirectly or via the multipath effect, leading to inaccuracy, or even blocked entirely. Unimpeded GNSS positioning in all real world scenarios is therefore unrealistic - creating a need for supporting technologies, such as real time kinematic (RTK) positioning and dead reckoning, to enable centimeter-accuracy for newer mass-market IoT devices.
