US: AeroFarms patents microgreens technology

As the World Economic Forum (WEF) convenes this week in Davos, Switzerland, leaders will explore ways to improve global access to nutritional foods against a backdrop of ever-increasing chronic illness and healthcare costs, depleting natural resources, and climate volatility.

AeroFarms, supplier of microgreens to the U.S. retail market and a Certified B Corporation, recently announced that it has unlocked a patented technology to grow highly nutritious microgreens at scale and has fully commercialized a climate-agnostic, economically viable vertical farming solution.

"The challenge of feeding our world is not only defined by the quantity of calories, but rather the quality of calories consumed," said Molly Montgomery, Executive Chair & CEO of AeroFarms, who is attending the WEF annual meeting in Davos.

AeroFarms currently represents over 70% of the U.S. microgreens retail market.
