General information
| Innovation ID | 342 |
| Version ID | 259 |
| Innovation Title | RapidGen (RGT) Platform |
| Innovation description | The workings of this innovation can mimic the right set of conditions within these closed installations to convince a plant to grow faster at high density and to reproduce quickly. These set of conditions, which we call ‘recipes’, are crop specific-protocols to hasten the crop cycle while producing healthy, viable seeds. This innovation is all about the test bed/condition optimization to speed up the growth and life cycle of specific crops. |
