Hi everyone,
So I'm certain many of us have seen the numbers when it comes to the environmental impact of agriculture. What am I referring to? This:
Almost 1/4 of the global greenhouse gases (of which 14% is linked to animals) comes from agriculture production - FAO
However, the number that is less frequently quoted is the waste production that also contributes to this number. Unfortunately, a lot of this is the result of waste produced by farms. In fact, the current system of fresh produce production and distribution is so wasteful that up to 40-50% of fruits and vegetables are disposed of between harvest and distribution. Now, to us, that number is staggering.
So, we decided to see what we could do about it. At this point, you're probably thinking, "But wait, soilless farms produce much less waste". Yes, you're absolutely right. But realistically, that's still going to leave an environmental footprint. In addition, it's a hidden cost that isn't talked about enough, but one that many farms then have to bear the burden of. There has to be a better way, no?
While we realize that there's no silver bullet that will solve the global food waste issue, we wanted to offer a solution that would help soilless farms truly embrace the idea of closed-loop agriculture. Importantly, we've also cracked the code on how to do this while still allowing farms to boost their net income.

SPEND YOUR LUNCH BREAK WITH US
Diving Into Waste
Has your soilless farm ever considered that your food waste could be a source of net income? Join our next “30 Min Lunch Series with Re-Nuble” session where we break down how you can convert your farm's on-site waste production into free, and also a renewable source of potable water and biostimulant nutrients. What this does is it improves your bottom line, reduces your fertilizer cost, increases the nutritional value of your crops, and increases your yield per square foot.
As always, we hope to create a community of like-minded individuals who are equally as determined to move the needle in the organic, sustainable, and closed loop agriculture space. So join us as we dive into the topic of waste!
