HYVE & AGEYE announce first joint project on heels of strategic partnership announcement

HYVE Indoor Farming Systems, a solutions-based, manufacturer of Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) systems and AGEYE a leader in automated platform monitoring for vertical farms and greenhouses have announced their first joint indoor vertical farming project since their announced strategic partnership on 15 February.

The project will be an indoor farm in Nebraska slated to begin immediately. The scope of the project will be a 13,000ft grow facility that is slated to focus primarily on leafy greens.

“We are excited to continue our expansion with a new installation that incorporates the artificial intelligence system developed by AGEYE," stated Ron Acorn, President of HYVE. "Although we have initiated several projects in the USA and Canada in the past few months and have extensively tested and worked with AGEYE on a project in North Carolina, this will be the first complete and comprehensive project we have worked on together since announcing our alliance.”

“We’re very excited to integrate our farm management and crop intelligence platform into this HYVE installation and are pleased that the opportunity has presented so soon after our announcement," added Nick Genty, Co-Founder & CEO of AGEYE. "Having already worked together with HYVE we feel comfortable that our system complements and enhances the HYVE system and will offer the grower unmatched automation, monitoring, and the very latest in a complete turnkey system.”

“We continue to look for ways to enhance value for users of our systems," Acorn further stated. "We have held as our core principle to be the most complete and scalable system in the market for mid and larger-scale commercial indoor farmers. This installation and incorporation of the AGEYE software and monitoring system is a major step in helping us to move further forward in that direction. This will be a win for HYVE and AGEYE, but most importantly, a major win for the commercial grower.”
