Siemens and 80 Acres Farms have announced a new plan to collaborate on vertical farming to incorporate a range of technology solutions into the agricultural industry for better farming practices.
The collaboration will consist of the optimization, automation and control of 80 Acres Farms facilities and processes by Siemens to help continue evolving the transformation of food production. This includes Smart Infrastructure for power distribution equipment, fire and life safety monitoring and more.
Seems US President and CEO Barbara Humpton commented on the Siemens and 80 Acres Farms collaboration saying, "In this moment of change and disruption – and in a world becoming increasingly ‘glocal’ – what I see at 80 Acres Farms represents both the purpose and the power of the industrial technologies now readily available to us – the capability to invent anywhere, then to scale our world-changing solutions everywhere.”
