Bluelab, in collaboration with partner Excel Seeds, is thrilled to announce collaboration with the Malaysian government-backed think-tank, MIGHT (Market-Driven Technological Partnership), and energy innovators Wasavé.
MIGHT and Wasavé have introduced an innovative approach to sustainable agriculture by harnessing the potential of liquefied natural gas (LNG) greenhouse cooling. This technology marks a significant leap forward in sustainable agriculture, offering a 20%-40% saving in total energy bills and a 22%-35% decrease in CO2 emissions.
Excel Seeds and Bluelab are proud to provide the automation and measurement technology required to effectively grow strawberries in the LNG-cooled greenhouse.
On September 9th, 2023, industry leaders, innovators, and agriculture enthusiasts gathered to witness the inauguration of this remarkable project, which promises to reshape the future of farming in Malaysia. The strawberry farm is poised to revolutionize the agricultural landscape with its innovative approach to energy efficiency, sustainability, and smart farming practices.
Excel Seeds, a prominent player in the agricultural technology sector, has played a pivotal role in this endeavour, incorporating a Bluelab MultiGrow system and Bluelab handheld measurement devices, including Pulse Meter and Combo Meter.
By collaborating closely with MIGHT, Wasavé, and Excel Seeds, Bluelab is taking a significant step toward sustainable agriculture in Malaysia. The project not only showcases the potential of CGR COLDGROW TM technology and LNG applications in agriculture but also highlights the importance of innovation and partnership in addressing the challenges of food production and environmental sustainability.
"This partnership represents our commitment to pushing the boundaries of agricultural technology and sustainability."
