Farming faces a multitude of issues that encompass both environmental and economic concerns. Two significant challenges are emissions and the rising cost of operations.rooftop farmingWhile indoor farming is more tech driven and climate resilient, their operating costs are also much higher, requiring significant investments in machinery and technology.
On the other hand, indoor farms are climate resilient and yield much higher production with fewer manpower needed. However, the operation is far more costly, especially in terms of energy use. The industry could also benefit from community-supported agriculture , which fosters a direct relationship between farmers and consumers. In a CSA arrangement, consumers subscribe to the harvest of a certain farm or group of farms and receive portions of the farm’s harvest on a regular basis. In addition to households, demand drivers could also include the F&B sector, supermarkets and wet markets, and schools.
CSA may also play a coordinating role in obtaining farming licences for its members, and importing agricultural materials, driving down costs for local farmers.
