"Today we received the first experimental batch of spinach, Basil, radish, lemon balm, arugula, and various types of salad and microcline. On the shelves and in the restaurants with fresh organic greens will appear early next year", - said the Chairman of the Board of Directors "Ruseko" Evgeny Antipov.

Another leader from the US company AeroFarms, located in a former foundry near new York, works on 6.5 thousand square meters and produces up to 4 tons of finished products.

The volume of investments in the first phase amounted to more than 5 billion rubles. The project was organized by the credit line of the largest Western banks. Among shareholders "Ruseko" Evgeny Antipov, Andronicus Ambartsumov and Arthur Super-Hablaran.

"New York, Singapore and other cities have already built their own urban farms, which have tremendous benefits. The first is completely organic and healthy products. Second, it fastest shipping. In the evening we pack in the morning is already on the store shelf or even in your plate," said Andronicus Ambartsumov.

"Moscow is extremely dependent on foreign supplies. Any import is more than a week. We have less than a day, that is, we preserve the vitamins and taste of the freshest of greens from the garden. For those who never put themselves on their "six acres", the taste will be a real discovery," said Andronicus Ambartsumov.

Urban farm for growing green crops will use organic hydroponics. Root nutrition of plants is carried out with clean water without using soil. Solar energy plants get from the special fitolamp that allows you to grow organic greens all year round without reference to climatic conditions.

 

"The capacity of the existing farm will allow it to occupy a leading position in the Moscow market. Thus investment potential "Ruseko" and the technology that we in 2015 are improving with graduates of leading Russian Universities, not limit our ambitions only outside of MKAD", - said Arthur Super-Hablaran.
