Advanced Aeroponics: Supercharging horticultural productivity

该项目旨在通过展示Lettus Growth正在申请专利的高级空气培养系统在大规模商业温室中的可行性，来解决种植者在与进口新鲜农产品竞争和实现净零的挑战。Lettus Growth已经证明，与目前使用的现有水培技术相比，他们正在申请专利的先进空气培养技术可以将新鲜农产品的增长率和年产量提高20%至200%。在垂直农场中，这可以将投资回报增加多达3倍。Advanced Aeroponics与大型温室系统的兼容性是目前最先进的技术所不能比拟的，从而使全球能够采用根本上更高效的生长技术。该项目将包括设计和原型制造Advanced Aeroponic滚动工作台系统。该系统将用于两项试验，以展示生产率的提高、种植的灵活性以及先进航空电子技术(能源、劳动力、水、养分等)资源效率的提高。试验将如下：*系统集成和性能试验：**由斯托克桥技术中心(STC)的CHAP运营，以展示独立第三方对LettU Growth的比较性能。(Trl 6)*商业生长试验：**由独立种植者运营，就系统性能、效益和解决关键种植者挑战的能力提供“真实世界”反馈。开发和试验的结果将在数字媒体渠道、学术出版物和行业特定会议上发布和展示。该财团还将为关键的外部利益相关者举办现场访问。如果您想了解该项目中先进的航空栽培技术的更多信息，请通过[**www.LettUsGrow.com**][0][0]：http://www.lettusgrow.com联系

This project sets out to solve grower challenges of competing on cost with imported fresh produce and achieving net zero by demonstrating the feasibility of LettUs Grow's patent-pending Advanced Aeroponic system in large scale commercial greenhouses.LettUs Grow has demonstrated that their patent-pending, Advanced Aeroponic technology can increase growth rate and annual yields of fresh produce by between 20 and 200% compared to the incumbent Hydroponic technology used today. In a vertical farm this can increase the lifetime Return on Investment by up to 3x.Advanced Aeroponics is uniquely compatible with large scale greenhouse systems in a way the current state-of-the-art is not, unlocking global adoption of a fundamentally more efficient growing technique.The project will include the design and prototype manufacture of an Advanced Aeroponic rolling bench system. This system will be used for two trials set out to demonstrate productivity increase, flexibility of growing and the improved resource efficiency of Advanced Aeroponics (energy, labour, water, nutrients etc.). The trials will be as follows:* **Systems integration and performance trials:** Operated by CHAP at Stockbridge Technology Centre (STC) to demonstrate comparative performance by an independent 3rd party to LettUs Grow. (TRL 6)* **Commercial growth trials:** Operated by an independent grower to provide 'real-world' feedback on system performance, benefits and the ability to solve key grower challenges.The outcomes of development and trials will be published and presented across digital media channels, academic publications and industry specific conferences. The consortium will also host site visits for key external stakeholders.If you would like to learn more about the Advanced Aeroponic technology in this project then please get in contact through [**www.LettUsGrow.com**][0][0]: http://www.lettusgrow.com
