Rural depopulation may very well be the flipside of the urban success story but fortunately there are ways to make sure it does not leave city-dwellers bereft of fresh produce. One such response to the global trend of urbanization is The Impact Farm, designed by the Danish architects at Human Habitat to take advantage of underutilized urban spaces for resource-efficient production of high quality greens.
The idea is as simple as it is effective: a used shipping container packed with an assembly-kit of pre-made components is transformed into a two-storey vertical hydroponic farm that can be erected in only ten days. Welcome to the future of food production.
