Our Technology

What is Farmitank?

Farmitank is a fully climate-controlled hydroponic farm that integrates an advanced technology to achieve the optimal climatic and lighting conditions that, combined with a perfect mix of nutrients, guarantees the maximum product quality.

Tank installed at CIAM (Montserrat Agronomic Innovation Center), belonging to the Foodiverse company. In operation since 2019

 

 

The building

We have patented a new and disruptive design totally different from others on the market. Crops are grown inside an isothermal, modular and scalable stainless-steel tank. This system occupies 40 m2 and there are different models between 6 and 18 meters high.

Elevator

The elevator is a system that makes Farmitank unique. It is a working platform that allows all agricultural tasks to be carried out at each level of crop. This means crop table is easily reachable, minimizing crop trays movements and leading to optimized seedling, transplants and harvests times.

Technologies integrated

Technologies integrated

Through its software, Farmitank allows you to control all the growing variables such as lighting, climate, and proper water conditions. This guarantees a fast growth, a high-quality product and easily replicable, regardless of external weather conditions and other environmental factors.

Labour

Labour

Our growing system is unique. We integrate automatisms which save labour costs such as seeding machines, transplanting robots and herb trimming machines.

Our motto:  “We bring the automation to the crop”.

Variety of crops

Variety of crops

Farmitank is especially designed for growing leafy greens, microgreens and herbs. At our research and development facilities we have tested more than 25 crops varieties with excellent yield results.

 

Farmitank advantages

Integrated solution by one only supplier

We design, manufacture and install a turnkey system. We adapt our system for each application depending on the location and the crops requirements.

Investigate – Simulate and test – Invest

Scalability is one of the main advantages of this system. Start off with a 6 to 12 meters high system to approach our technology and research the growing crops, to move later to yield and profitability studies. Later on, enlarge this tank up to 18 meter or extend the installation with more tanks.

Investigate – Simulate and test – Invest

 

Do not move plants: We bring the automation to the crop

Our working platform incorporates the seeding machine, transplanting robots and harvesting systems to carry out the different processes needed for cultivation at any working level high, regardless the high.

Flexibility: Grow at your own pace

Farmitank is scalable, so tanks can be added depending on your needs. Organize tanks by crop or adapt production to market demands.

Efficient LED = Higher yields

We use reflectors on each crop level to improve efficiency and lighting efficacy, achieving, also, a high lighting uniformity at the crop table and increasing intensity with the same electrical output. Thanks to this exclusive technique, we have reached as much as 120 kg/m2/year in lettuce.

Efficient LED = Higher yields

 

Highest land equivalent ratio

One tank footprint is 40 m2, multiplying this area by 10 to have up to 400 m2 of cultivation inside an 18-meter high tank with 30 levels. This makes Farmitank the tallest vertical farm in the world.

Quick assembly. Install it wherever you want

Easy and quick to assemble and disassemble. In addition, as it is a modular system, it is easily transportable to any part of the world./p>

Climate-controlled by sector and vertical ventilation

The system HVAC is another of our strengths due to vertical ventilation in all its levels. We can also generate different climatic zones inside the same tank.
