Iron Ox is a Startup Working to Automate and Improve Greenhouses
Colin Smith — October 28, 2022'Iron Ox' is a greenhouse technologies startup working to automate greenhouse farming processes while simultaneously reducing the environmental impact that these greenhouses have. The company aims to achieve this by leveraging artificial intelligence and robotic automation.
Iron Ox deploys robotic workers in its greenhouses that manage water levels, pest control, and nutrient levels in plants. These robots are equipped with an advanced machine-learning system that allows them to continually improve the efficiency of greenhouses, thus reducing the climate impact.
The Iron Ox robotic greenhouse workers are also capable of planting and harvesting crops, as well as customizing the water and nutrient supply levels for each individual type of crop, resulting in less wasted resources and more efficient growing processes. According to Iron Ox, this is also a more scalable solution for greenhouse farming.
