UMAMI Vertical Farming Zürich SWITZERLAND スイス

Zürich Food SWITZERLAND
In the middle of Zurich, the start-up Umami grows herbs and vegetables, following nature's example. Aquatic animals provide nutrients, plants in turn purify the water and the biodiversity and the natural balance of the ecosystem ensure that no artificial fertilizers or pesticides need to be used.
A team of visionaries who are determined to prove that nobody can do it better than nature.
Using artificial pesticides, fertilizers or antibiotics is short-sighted and self-destructive. Nature has its own way of regulating its needs in a sustainable balance. By using natural synergies and optimizing resources, we can produce efficiently and completely naturally.

The word "umami" was identified as an independent taste quality by the Japanese researcher Kikunae Ikeda in 1908. It can be literally translated as meaty, hearty or tasty. It means a full-bodied taste, such as is typical of meat, cheese or mushrooms.
Umami is a hyped term in the West today, although most people do not understand what it actually means. Whether this term describes this product appropriately is debatable.
