Rooftop Farming-Partnerschaft

More and more of the world’s urban roof surfaces are being used sustainably, in a development which helps to counteract widespread sealing of land. Playing out on the roof of the Science Tower Graz at a height of 60 metres above street level, our Smart City Rooftop Farming project enables us to pursue our goal of demonstrating a best-practice example of how sustainable food production on urban rooftops represents an integrative solution that allows cities to adapt to climate change.

The roofs of the future have new, additional functions: they will generate electricity, produce food – locally, seasonally and sustainably – and help foster a healthy urban climate.

In this research project, we are growing food crops in high-quality substrate as part of our work to investigate which components are required for sustainable, professionalised rooftop food production.
