Designing financially profitable, controlled environment agriculture solutions
Termian Technology
Controlled environment agriculture offers a framework upon which sustainable farming can be practiced with predictable financial results. Controlled environment farming is a practice that recycles nutrients, organic matter and water back into the next growing cycle while concurrently avoiding pollutants. This forms part of an agricultural practice that preserves the nutrient and carbon levels within the soil or growing foundation and allows farming to be carried out on a sustainable and predictable basis.
The Need
The volume of food grown indoors is projected to continue to increase at rates above twenty percent per annum for the coming decades to provide produce for a fundamentally urban population. Designers, investors and operators are faced with the challenge of growing at these rates while simultaneously applying
principles of sustainability and efficiency. Applying controlled environment agriculture concepts can meet this need.Our Story
We are entrepreneurs that have designed, financed and launched food growing ventures that incorporated multiple controlled environment growing features. We have a track record of successes,
set-backs and bounce-backs that have yielded a portfolio of controlled environment growing designs, technology systems and financial models.
Our Vision
We see the opportunity to apply "full circle, controlled environment " design concepts to growing that incorporate financial modeling as a means to increase food production, reduce environmental impacts and increase capital access.
Our Approach
We approach applying controlled environment growing designs with an integrated vision that starts with a "full circle, controlled environment" growing design that runs from suppliers through to facilities and operations with financial models to provide realistic estimates of capital and operating costs.
