40-Foot Educational Container Farm

A controlled-environment hydroponic farm designed as a hands-on STEAM and agriculture laboratory. The system combines hydroponics, environmental controls, sensors, automation, LED grow lighting, water management, and data monitoring in one learning environment.

Additional product highlights

  • Approximately 9.4 m growing area and separate lockable technical area
  • 10 vertical hydroponic towers with up to 800 mature-plant positions
  • Five-level tray system with up to 2,000 seedling/young-plant positions
  • Two independent nutrient circuits that can support educational comparison experiments

Hands-On STEAM Learning

Learn. Test. Grow. Measure.

The container farm turns classroom concepts into real experiments through a simple four-step cycle.

01 · Learn

Understand the
science.

02 · Test

Adjust variables and create experiments.

03 · Grow

Manage real crops and systems.

04 · Measure

Analyze results and compare outcomes.
