The continually-growing world populations, the global trend to urbanisation, climate change and pressure on natural resources are key drivers for policies on global food security. Vertical farming is an innovative methodology for vertical cultivation of agricultural products in a small footprint, which can also realize true zero-mile city food supply.

GrowCanada Conference is Canada's premier agricultural event, providing a platform to connect with industry leaders from across the country, explore cutting-edge insight and build a stronger and more vibrant Canadian agricultural sector that ultimately contributes to a better world.

Hydroponics is the process of growing plants without the use of conventional soil or completely in water. In this basic Hydroponics class we will discuss various hydroponic systems (Deepwater Culture, Ebb & Flow, Nutrient Film Technique, Bato Buckets, etc) and which could be a good fit for your garden

The International Forum on Agricultural Science and Technology (AGRIFORUM 2023) is a conference that covers topics such as:

- Agricultural Chemistry

- Agricultural Genetics

- Agricultural Biotechnology

- Agricultural Economics & Agribusiness

- Agricultural Engineering

- Agricultural Risk Management

- Alternative Farming systems and Vertical Farming

Vertical Farming is becoming critically important in increasing food production, maintaining high-quality crops and contributing to sustainable urban farming, hence playing an important role in increasing food security worldwide.
