Vanguard: Mobile phytotechnical complexes

2019: Announcement of mobile phytotechnical complexes

On July 25, 2019 the Rostec company reported that it developed small-size agricultural complexes which will allow to grow up fresh greens in house conditions at all seasons of the year.

According to the company, Mobile phytotechnical complexes support the necessary level of lighting and humidity in the automatic mode, and it is possible to manage them far off – from the mobile phone.

As a part of Rostec development is conducted by Avangard company. Unlike large complexes which are used in farms the model is intended for installation in institutions of public catering, in educational institutions and houses. It consists of several racks and is equipped with the automated control system for watering, temperature, lighting and level of humidity.

For work of a complex only electricity and water are required. The technology allows to grow up organic microgreens, sheet and listosteblevy cultures (salad, mint, a melissa, a thyme, etc.) on artificial substrate and at total absence of natural sunlight. It allows to provide a regulated favorable diet for a root system, gives the chance to control concentration of a carbon dioxide gas in air and other indicators.

In a basic equipment length of a complex is less than 1.5 m, height – a little more than 2 m. At the same time the sizes can be changed depending on the desirable volume and a type of the grown-up products. On average the device is estimated at 73 thousand rubles. The final price will depend on a final complete set.
