Curiosity sparked innovation, our founder’s interest with the term “soilless farming”, led him down the path of discovery, uncovering the game changing technology of greenhouse farming and hydroponics. The potential for consistent yields, year-round production, and reduced environmental impact was too compelling to ignore for his youthful mind.
As he did more research, he found out the remarkable contributions of soilless farming has; conserving CO2 in agricultural soils, repurposing food by-products as substrates thereby reducing environmental pollution.
Our founder’s vision became simple yet profound: to ensure healthy, nutritious food is available to everyone, regardless of the season or circumstance. By utilising the opportunities soilless farming and hydroponics bring to the agricultural table, Yale Farms Ltd is redefining the future of agriculture and reimagining the way we grow and eat.
