Controlled-environment agriculture as a sustainable investing opportunity
As climate change creates more volatile and challenging growing conditions, controlled-environment agriculture is likely to become vital to the future of global food production. CEA—which includes greenhouse, indoor and vertical farming—will play an important part in addressing environmental and social issues around food security, while also offering the potential for strong returns for VCs.

Our latest analyst note in the Emerging Sustainable Investing Opportunities series explores how growing demand for food, increased government funding, the shift to more natural and sustainable diets and the necessity of climate-resilient agriculture are creating more opportunities for CEA companies.
