Agricultural apparatus and method

This invention describes a system for growing plants indoors using tall vertical poles that move around on a conveyor. Each pole has its own water tank at the top, which gravity-feeds water down to plants at different levels, with special valves to ensure even watering despite height differences. An electronic system monitors water levels and moves poles to a refill station, and also manages their movement between growing areas and a workstation for harvesting.

Why it matters: Since 2018, advancements in AI-driven optimization and sensor technology have made sophisticated environmental control and demand-based scheduling more feasible and efficient. This could simplify the complex software logic required for managing individual pole conditions and harvest timing.
