SINGAPORE - Using 3D-printed farming components and weaving permaculture elements into vegetable farms are some of the business ideas students came up with at the end of a six-month course that taught them to look at urban farming from an entrepreneurial perspective.
Nutrious Farms set up the basic elements for a soil-based and hydroponic farm, but left it to the students to give life to the space. The optional course is open to SUSS students and alumni. At the end of the programme, they are required to pitch their business ideas and sell their harvested produce or products at a bazaar.
