What Makes Hydroponics a Game-Changer? 🌿 Hydroponics is transforming agriculture. By growing plants in nutrient-rich water instead of soil, we reduce water consumption, maximize space efficiency, and avoid soil-borne diseases. For leafy greens, this means faster growth cycles and fresher produce for consumers. As we embrace this method, the potential for sustainable and scalable food systems becomes clear. The future is green, and it can grow without soil! #Hydroponics #SustainableAgriculture #LeafyGreens #FutureOfFarming

Thank you FIT - Fondation pour l'Innovation Technologique Congrats to Arkaïya SA and WasteFlow That's a great milestone for us Techponics
🅑🅡🅐🅥🅞 Arkaïya SA, Hyswiss and WasteFlow receive support from FIT 🚀 Arkaïya and Hyswiss (Techponics) get two Tech Seed loans worth CHF 100,000 each and WasteFlow a CHF 50,000 Digital Seed loan. 🍼 Arkaïya SA wants to improve children's microbiome via an innovative nutrition system. Neglected by research, archaea are the ‘guardians’ of the intestinal microbiome, maintaining beneficial bacteria while stopping pathogens. Using postbiotics, Arkaïya's innovative nutrition system can diagnose and treat archaea deficiency , especially during the first four years of life of non-breastfed children. 🥬 Hyswiss decided to rethink salad production by creating an innovative and accessible solution: Techponics. Based on an automated and flexible hydroponic system, this system offers an alternative adapted to the needs of the leafy vegetable mass market. It can be installed in any configuration (greenhouses, open fields, etc.), overcoming current production constraints. ♻ WasteFlow is revolutionising the recycling process through an AI-based analysis system that makes up for the lack of visibility. Sensors strategically positioned throughout the sorting process collect data on the nature, mass and hazardousness of the waste. This data-driven approach enables sorting centres to improve recycling accuracy, reduce disruptions and risks, while optimising their operational costs. Congrats Duncan Sutherland, Louis BELLOIN & Henri de Lalande, Valentin Ibars, Théophile Agresti & Théo Vitupier 👏 Read more 👉 https://lnkd.in/evqAQAK8 #VDTech #SwissTech #startupFIT #biotech #microbiome #nutrition #waste #cleantech #agritech #recycling

What’s the biggest barrier to adopting new technology in agriculture? Innovation can only make an impact if it’s accessible. At Techponics, we focus on creating solutions that adapt to existing setups, whether in fields or greenhouses. In your experience, what factors most often hold back tech adoption in agriculture? #AgriTech #TechAdoption #Innovation #Farmers #Techponics

🌱 Why do we think hydroponics is part of the solution? Because agriculture is facing three major challenges: 1️⃣ Climate change 2️⃣ Regulations 3️⃣ Labor shortages Hydroponics addresses all three: it secures production, drastically reduces inputs, and allows for automation. At Techponics, we go further: We adapt to the configuration of our clients and we can install our system everywhere... Hydroponics won’t replace all farming methods, but it’s a game-changer where reliability, sustainability, and scalability matter most. 💡 What do you think? Is hydroponics the future, or just one piece of the puzzle? Let’s discuss. 👇 #AgTech #Hydroponics #SustainableFarming #Automation #ClimateResilience #FutureOfFood #PrecisionAgriculture

🌱 Automating lettuce production, anywhere. What you see in this picture is our competitive edge. Unlike traditional hydroponic systems locked inside high-tech greenhouses, we install directly in open fields or under tunnels. We adapt to the configuration of our clients.... ✅ More flexible ✅ More cost-effective ✅ Still fully automated This is unique in the market. And it’s what allows our clients to secure their production while staying profitable. Want to see it in action? Let’s talk. #AgTech #Innovation #Hydroponics #Automation #Lettuce

Visited the site of our first client today – can't reveal where just yet, but we're extremely excited about this project! We have met a fantastic grower who’s putting their trust in us, and together, we’re set to grow a lot of fresh salads. 🌱 It’ll take a few months before you see our hydroponic basins in action, but we can't wait to share the results with you all soon.

💧 Implementation plan in action! We're integrating our hydroponic basins and irrigation system for maximum efficiency. Every basin is precisely positioned, and the irrigation system is optimized for intelligent water management—ensuring optimal growth for lettuce and other crops. With our automated setup, we provide sustainable, scalable, and highly efficient farming solutions for the future. It’s all about creating a system that works smarter, not harder. 🌱🚀 #Hydroponics #IrrigationSystems #AutomatedFarming #SmartFarming #SustainableAgriculture #AgricultureTech #Innovation

🔍 We’re on-site today conducting land surveys alongside a surveyor to lay the groundwork for a future-proof hydroponic system. This crucial data will help us design detailed greenhouse plans, ensuring the perfect placement of our lettuce production basins and spacing system. Precision is key as we tailor our installations to meet our clients' unique needs, setting the stage for automated, efficient, and sustainable production. Every step counts to deliver robust, flexible solutions that redefine agricultural practices. 🌱 #Hydroponics #AgricultureInnovation #SustainableFarming #PrecisionAgriculture #Surveying #AutomatedFarming #SmartFarming
