Smart Data Monitoring Solution of Indoor Farms | ||
LATERAL.systems LLC, an AgTech startup, has developed the LATERAL Edge Platform, an edge-based monitoring system designed to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of commercial indoor farms. By continuously monitoring water quality and atmospheric conditions, the platform helps farmers detect and respond to potential imbalances before they cause significant crop damage, reducing waste and increasing yields. The system offers customizable Grow Profiles for various crops and provides real-time alerts, alarms, and actionable mediation options, making it particularly valuable for addressing the challenges faced by novice farm workers. Unlike cloud-based solutions, LATERAL’s edge-based approach ensures reliable data processing even in areas with limited internet connectivity, lowers operational costs, and improves data security. With its innovative tools, LATERAL aims to democratize access to smart monitoring solutions, support food security, and advance the growing indoor farming industry. | ||
Regenerative Agriculture | ||
REGENERATIVE AGRICULTURE (RegenAG) involves shifting from a carbon intensive food system to carbon-negative agriculture that restores rather than degrades ecosystems. While there is no globally accepted definition, this term is widely accepted to refer to integrated systems of farming, ranching, and pastoral practices that contribute to stabilizing the planet’s climate and carbon cycles by rehabilitating and safeguarding biodiversity and living systems. | ||
Rural | ||
A rural community is typically defined as a group of people living in a rural area, which is an area that is not considered to be urban or suburban. Rural areas are typically characterized by lower population densities, less developed infrastructure, and a greater reliance on agriculture and natural resources for economic activity. | ||
