Yes, you can produce food at home, at least vegetable crops and we'll focus on lettuce today. So, people get to know their farmer, and know how their food is produced and the challenges that occur. Use of land, and water, nutrients, and energy more efficiently and provide a predictable harvest, dependable harvest, to feed people. We're looking to produce high quality food with high yields that are safe and secure, hopefully, pesticide free.
And we work with companies small and large in business development. We provide demonstrations and we develop applications for growers to use these systems. We are part of the University of Arizona. And we are a group of scientists and engineers that work together in controlled environments such as greenhouses to use hydroponics and controlled environments to grow plants primarily for food production.
I am the director and a professor of the Controlled Environment Agriculture Center. To show the simplicity of our "Beer cooler" hydroponic system design, and use the Martha Stewart project as an example. My educational goals are to explain the benefits of using hydroponics for food production.
In this segment, you can produce food at home. This is the third part of a three part segment. I'm Gene Giacomelli, and I'll be speaking to you today about feeding the future and the present.
