About HydroGreen
HydroGreen produces Automated Vertical Pastures™, a type of
smart farming equipment that uses a unique process to sprout grains
such as wheat and barley, in a controlled growing environment to
efficiently produce a high-performance feed ingredient for
livestock 365 days a year. HydroGreen's equipment is simple and
easy to operate and performs all growing functions automatically,
including seeding, watering, lighting, harvesting, and re-seeding,
which allows livestock businesses to feed consistent nutrition
every day with minimal labour. When balanced correctly in the
ration, HydroGreen sprouted grain modifies animal digestion which
enhances productivity and reduces the amount of enteric methane
emitted in ruminant livestock. The result also enables
environmental benefits to the farm while helping to meet increasing
demand for valuable farm-based inset and offset carbon credits.
