2020 Horticulture Report Described SANANBIO Plant Factory Operations
A March 2020 horticulture report described SANANBIO’s Fujian plant factory and changes to its cultivation practices during the early COVID-19 period, based on industry-sourced information.
According to HortiDaily on March 6, 2020, a report compiled with information gathered by Dutch Sino Business Promotions examined how Chinese growers responded to disruptions during the early COVID-19 outbreak.
The report identified SANANBIO among the indoor farming companies maintaining vegetable production. It described a 10,000-square-metre plant factory in Fujian and said cultivation density, lighting and nutrient supply were adjusted as demand for fresh greens changed. It also reported increases in lettuce and bok choy production in that period, based on information supplied through the industry survey.
The article separately discussed the company’s vegetable distribution through local points of sale and online ordering. Figures in the report reflect the situation and reported measurements in early 2020; they should not be treated as audited, current output specifications or promises for customers purchasing equipment.
This historical example illustrates the operational issues of commercial indoor agriculture, particularly continuity of production and fresh produce distribution during a supply-chain disruption.
