ABU DHABI / WAM
ADQ, an Abu Dhabi-based investment and holding company, announced the operational phase of its cutting-edge AgTech Park ecosystem with the launch of a vertical farming project in partnership with Zero, a high-impact technology company headquartered in Italy.
The Zero project is the first of several controlled environment agricultural concepts that will be housed in the AgTech Park and will aim to enhance indoor farming locally, as well as explore and push the boundaries of desert-climate farming in the UAE.
The inaugural farming facility is situated in Khalifa Economic Zones Abu Dhabi Group (Kezad), the UAE’s largest operator and developer of fully integrated and specialised economic zones.
Set to strengthen the local production of crops, fruits and vegetables for multiple applications including fresh food, nutraceuticals and biopharmaceuticals, the first joint project between ADQ and ZERO draws on the benefits of growing crops in vertical layers in a controlled environment.
