Focused on the new frontier of closed environment systems for food production in space, it will tackle its growing challenges and incredible potential to move towards a more sustainable space-based agriculture industry in Scotland.
DAY 1 - The participants will be provided with a comprehensive overview of growing different food types in closed environments and the latest knowledge and technologies needed for their cultivation.
DAY 2 - The KE Consortia will encourage discussions and debates among participants, with facilitators moderating conversations to share diverse expertise and perspectives.
DAY 3 - The focus will be the practical application of the knowledge and expertise within Scotland, addressing the challenges and opportunities of implementing space-based agriculture within the country, including regulatory considerations, funding, and infrastructure requirements.
