The production of a 1-acre Fodderbox rivals that of a center-pivot field on a 160-acre plot.
Fodderbox has an amazing capacity to produce enormous quantities of fresh alfalfa daily, year-round off a tiny footprint.
This is achieved through a combination of features:
- Climate-controlled environment allowing for year-round production, doubling yields
- Vertical grow-towers offer a 6x growing surface.
- Higher plant density
- Aeroponics, increasing oxygen to the roots and delivering Optimal Water and Nutrients, 100% of the time.
- Supplementary lighting, creating longer grow-days
