The sky is the limit for the vertical farming industry. Aerofarm's Marc Oshima joins Cheddar to discuss his company's construction of the world's largest indoor farm. The co-founder and chief marketing officer explains the technology behind the firm's smart-farming system.
Earlier this year, Aerofarms built its new flagship facility in Newark, New Jersey. Oshima takes us inside the massive new complex and explains how it fits into the company's overall scaling strategy. He reveals that Aerofarms also makes sure to integrate itself in every community it enters.
