Irrigation system for vertical grow tower crop production facility

This system helps grow crops in vertical towers by moving them along a line and watering them with nutrient solution at specific points. Excess solution is caught by a gutter and pumped back to a tank for reuse, making it a closed-loop system. The claims describe this as a modular setup, with key components like the return pump and nutrient dosing system mounted on separate frames or 'skids'.

Why it matters: The two years since filing haven't seen radical shifts in core hydroponic tech. However, growing emphasis on resource efficiency and sustainability in controlled agriculture, as indicated by the Y02P classification, could make this closed-loop, precise dosing system more compelling now.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: ModerateConveyance, pumps, tanks, nutrient dosing, modular skids.
