An employee at Plant Factory checks the growth of greens cultivated in a vertical farming system in Istanbul on Wednesday, May 8, 2024. Plant Factory is Turkey's first commercial vertical farm. Vertical farming is a method of growing crops without soil in a controlled environment, delivering nutrient-rich water straight to a plant's roots. It can use significantly less water and fertilizer than traditional outdoor agriculture, and by continuously recirculating water, it creates very little waste. (Photo by Chris McGrath/Getty Images)
