Vertical farming is a form of agriculture that uses vertically inclined surfaces or is practiced in skyscrapers. Although different concepts have been developed, no large-size vertical farm has been built yet. Vertical farms would be meant to increase food production inside crowded cities. Not only food and vegetables but also poultry and fish could be cultivated.
Vertical farms would have to make use of advanced greenhouse technology such as hydroponics, aquaponics and aeroponics.
