As climate change accelerates, freshwater scarcity and soil salinization are becoming increasingly severe. While agricultural production methods using seawater desalination systems or relying solely on condensation water have been developed worldwide, their widespread adoption has been limited due to high costs and low production efficiency.
Our technology enables direct cultivation using nutrient solutions containing salinity, significantly reducing energy costs. Moreover, this unique cultivation approach supports not only leafy vegetables but also fruiting crops with high water demand, representing a novel and highly differentiated seawater-based agricultural technology.
