A look inside a Brazilian vertical farm

A vertical farm in Sao Paulo has been experimenting with indoor vegetable growth and it uses artificial pink lighting, to grow its produce.

“We think this is important because in the next years we will have a huge growth in the population so we need to find better ways to grow food for them,” Rafael Pereira, the founder and partner of Pink Farm said.

The below video gives a thorough look inside the vertical farm.
