Project does not have to be limited to community centres, can also be carpark rooftops etc.
In Japan, most companies have rooftop gardens, and often employees are rotated to take care of it. At the end of it, there is no "physical" end product taken away other than usage, but in the case of this, we have the produce. How would the produce be dis

Is this project self-sustainable? Maybe is it possible for the public to play a part in this project

Is the high-tech rooftop farm's purpose to enable more consumers to be aware, gain interest in urban farming, and hopefully convert them to grow their own crops for their own usage? Or do the crops produced by these consumers go to supermarkets/ hotels et

Who would be tending to these farms? Can we have more community engagement, i.e. volunteers to plant their produce/ student outings to these farms? I believe that community engagement is important to raise awareness of this initiative and ensure greater s

how new is hydroponics systems? why do we need your organisation to step in, instead of finding existing hydroponics or growing systems provider? is there any trade off for using rooftop for farms? what are the current functions of CC rooftops?

An aspect to consider is how you would perhaps convince business owners that it would be beneficial for them to also switch to produce food through technological means. Generally, the cost of the technology and the time/effort to train (existing) employee

from a business pov, does the initial high investment in capital expenditure make sense? the profits made from education programmes and the selling of produce(very small margin) might not cover the high cost of tech. also high tech means the requirement o

of land use, and rooftop spaces. You may want to look into industrial rooftops that the public usually do not have access to. Also farm management, would it be an avenue for increased employment for horticulturalists ?
