Presentation title: The Fundamentals of Light and its Impact on Vertical Farming Presentation abstract: From photochemical reactions and crop production to energy efficiency and operating costs, light is the single most critical factor impacting the success (or failure) of a vertical farm harvest and business. Beginning with the basics of “what is light?” and concluding with an in-depth overview on quantifying and qualifying lighting differentials – from white light to purple light and top light to side light – this session will provide attendees a crash course in applying photobiology and economic principles to build and manage a denser, healthier, greener vertical farm. The AVF Summit 2016 brought together multiple stakeholders in order to: » Discuss circular economies and inform on their application » Present on state-of-the-art technical developments within vertical farming such as growing techniques, LED lighting, building integrated agriculture, mushroom production and insect-farming and more... » Develop a perspective on policy, sustainable finance and business models » Encourage industry standards and collaboration » Network The AVF Summit 2016 is brought to you by the Association for Vertical Farming in partnership with GreenTech and is sponsored by Fluence Bioengineering, Valoya and Blue Planet Consulting. www.vertical-farming.net www.facebook.com/averticalfarm www.twitter.com/averticalfarm Post, share, and “like” #AVFSummit Filmed on June 13th 2016 in Amsterdam at AVF Summit 2016 by Ideal Entertainment
