💧 reduce water & fertiliser use
❌ no harmful pesticides
🌱 reduce land use & protect soils
Growing in #greenhouses or #verticalfarms can be better for crops, farmers & the environment.

How can we improve access to the vitamin B12?
Scientists at the John Innes Centre, Quadram Institute & LettUs Grow have discovered a way to add B12 to pea shoots using aeroponics.
Learn more about this breakthrough in this video by The Royal Society: hubs.la/Q029pNtp0
Last October, we announced our partnership with the University of Surrey to develop an #aeroponic greenhouse system for the propagation of willow trees.
Now just over a year on, here's an update on what the TAEDA Tech Project project has been getting up to:

Have you heard about how we're boosting B12 vitamin levels in pea shoots? 🌿
We're using aeroponics to biofortify pea shoots - so your recommended daily dose could be delivered in a single small portion of pea shoots.

Honoured to attend the State Visit Farewell Event in Bordeaux, organised by @The Department of Business & Trade.
Climate change has been high on the agenda throughout the #RoyalVisitFrance , so it has been a pleasure to show the part agri-tech can play in the solution 🌍
Researchers have discovered a way of boosting B12 levels in pea shoots with #biofortification . 🌿
John Innes Centre and @theQuadram have used LettUs Grow's #aeroponics to grow B12 fortified pea shoots containing recommended daily dose in a single portion.
