The potential of this new method is also used by NASA, as its goal is to provide  high-quality food in space for the astronauts. NASA is currently using a special nutrient supply technique, growing seed potatoes in climate-controlled greenhouses. In this hydroponic system, the volume of water is very small, which is an extremely important aspect of growing food in space. In addition to potatoes, they are also experimenting with growing soybeans and rice, but hydroponics is not for everyone, it turned out that some plants still feel better in their traditional terrestrial environment.

According to Vipul, “people take a lot of nutritional supplements and vitamins to be healthier and stronger, but these benefits can also be achieved directly from certain exotic vegetables. According to nutrition experts, vitamins and minerals found in plants are a much better alternative. This method is not new, as it is already a common practice in Asian countries, and it has also recently appeared in Western Europe as well. However, there are few growers who explain how to effectively incorporate these plants into the diet. Eevi Gardens wants to provide a solution for this.”

“At Planet540, we deal with the hydroponic cultivation of microgreens. Our added value is hyperlocalization, so we drastically reduce the environmental impact resulting from transport and packaging. We are committed to reducing quality hunger because we offer our consumers tasty, fresh, nutrient-rich, local vegetables,” Ági highlights.
