Saia Agrobotics

Every community should have access to local, high quality fresh produce. The demand of healthy fruits and vegetables is increasing rapidly worldwide because the middle class is expanding and the population is growing. Meanwhile, climate change and the depopulation of the countryside are already having a large negative impact on yields and food security. Indoor Farming offers a controlled climate and protection from the changes outside. It brings a solution to the increasing global water scarcities by using drastically less water. Yields are typically higher too, so less land has to be used. However, scaling up Indoor Farms around the world is not as easy as it seems. A local, reliable pool of quality workers is needed, which is increasingly hard to come by. Also, to control large-scale farms, a lot of expert knowledge is required. SAIA believes that in order for indoor growing to become accessible everywhere, we need robots to help the workers and we need A.I. to empower the growers in controlling their farms optimally. Through SAIA we will help the transition to Autonomous Indoor Farming. For improved food security, better jobs and healthy meals for everyone.
