Public Profile

Combining cloud-based technology and what it describes as “remotely-managed growing services,” Babylon management describe the firm's technology as a plug-and-play hydroponics system for indoor ag. Offering production units - 15 square-foot micro-farms - the suggestion is that system can potentially yield as much produce as a 2,000 square-foot of outdoor farmland. The firm's software platform is designed to function as a fine-tuned nutrient and irrigation systems readily customizable with LED lights as the light source. What are described as “smart farms” automatically dispense appropriate amounts of water, nutrients, and light for each crop based on the system collected data programmed to make appropraite adjustments: all functions performed remotely. Business plan indicates leasing the machines through contracts that cover all user incurred costs from equipment, installation to crops mana
