Solving Traditional Farming Challenges for Urban households

ACTIVEPOTS

As a urban parent, are you looking to:

grow healthier food using traditional farming methods?
make use of experts' crops growing methods for a better yield?
produce food in your balconies, rooftops and backyards?
save money from your monthly budget?
like to share farming techniques with your kids who are growing up in a city and aren't familiar with farming?
help grow more food for the world?

ActivePots are micro farming pots designed to solve urban farming challenges

Urban farming can be a whole family activity.

It will help your family lead a healthier life by producing your own fresh, organic produce.

Do it to save on the cost of food.

Do it as a hobby to help relieve stress.

Share the joys of farming with your children who are growing up in an urban environment.

Regardless of your reasons, you will enjoy the freshest, tastiest produce and you will be helping the world to produce more food.

It's a win-win for all.

Experts estimate that, by 2050, nearly 10 billion people will face food shortages and have to be fed. The rapidly changing climate threatens the entire food supply ecosystem, food quality, accessibility to good food, and transportation links, affecting food security to feed the world.

It has been estimated that a quarter million children are born every day and the imminent crisis of food security will push many into food poverty.

Our current food system with the threat from climatic changes is needed to increase food production levels by 70%. In order to meet the world's future food demands while overcoming current challenges, technology intervention is needed. India has an opportunity to evolve a mechanism and involve her urban households in farming.

Better than Other Solutions

Hydroponic solutions are costly, bulky. Hydroponic systems need expertise to setup and maintain.
ActivePots are sleek, vertical pots that are easy to install and operate and cost-effective. If someone tries to build a system by assembling available kits, the costs are too high compared to the benefits gained.

Better Guidance to the Urban farmers

There is also lack of an integrated solution. It is difficult for urban households to create a solution based on available components.
ActivePots helps solving these two issues with its Tower model. The tower model comes with a pre-wired system and Apps to guide the user timely.
