Flying high with plasma: Sustainable agri in urban areas

GERMANY, Greifswald – Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is a nationwide pioneer: The Federal Ministry of Education and Research has approved more than 520,000 euros in funding for another PHYSICS FOR FOOD flagship project for the use of plasma technologies in vertical farming.

With the launch of this new flagship project "Physics for Sustainable Vertical Farming", the PHYSICS FOR FOOD alliance is opening up further capital: With the world's population constantly growing - according to the United Nations, the number has almost doubled since 1980 and currently stands at over 8 billion people - the demand for food and arable land is increasing.
