Operating a greenhouse? Humidity problems are common in greenhouses with high density or low airflow.

What’s the most common mistake you see beginning farmers make when picking a control system?

Burton doesn’t advocate one type of farming, even though there’s often infighting and debate among farmers about topics such as hydroponics vs. soil. “Whenever farmers say these things publicly, they are not helping each other out,” he says. “Everyone is so passionate about what they do, but there’s no one right way to do everything. Unless you’re out there just spraying chemicals on everything, I don’t have a problem with it.”

Hiring new employees is a tricky endeavor for any company.
For small farmers, the prospect of bringing in strangers to help run your dream job can be a frightening prospect.
New faces, responsibility and financial strains are a lot to swallow.

Over the past two or three years, we’ve seen many numbers listed for the production ability of container farms. Most of them have become unrealistic, if not downright absurd.
The problem? These unrealistic numbers are adversely affecting the success of aspiring farmers and it's slowing the growth of what could be an incredibly impactful industry.
Today we’re taking an honest look at the yields of both field production and indoor production to see how these types of indoor farms stack up.
Why? Because we believe the success of the controlled environment ag industry is directly tied to the success of those starting farms.
As we talked about in the last container farm post/video, unrealistic expectations are without a doubt the silent killer of most modern farms and if new growers are starting businesses around unrealistic numbers, the industry as a whole will suffer and those who would have benefitted from better food will lose as well.
So how much can a container farm produce?
Tune in to find out.

What makes unique? (Full video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-dOtVKECuc)
While they share many common characteristics like being innovative, hustling and working hard, or just being able to persevere through the ups and downs of starting a business, there’s another trait that makes this network of modern farmers unique.
That differentiating trait is that they all approach from a pragmatic angle and not as some pie-in-the-sky hypothetical proposition.
That’s because they know the technology they choose doesn’t have to be overly complicated and sci-fi.
Their pragmatic approach to means they choose designed simplicity over headline-grabbing gadgetry. In fact, they see “technology” as merely new tools to do things better, not to add more stress to their lives.
Upstart Farmers like Localize, are committed to taking a pragmatic approach to feeding their local communities better food with appropriate technology.
