Sprout AI Habitats

The team at Sprout AI is pleased to announce a new partnership with Active 20-30 Las Cumbres, Rep. of Panama on their Rice, Beans and Greens initiative.

Active 20-30 Las Cumbres, Rep. of Panama was founded in 1989, with the mission to provide young adults with an opportunity for personal growth, friendships, and leadership development while improving the quality of life for the needs of children in their community.

Through this partnership, Sprout AI will be growing a combination of crops that will provide the produce for the “greens” portion of this vital program that currently feeds over 10,000 vulnerable Panamanians each year.

Each Sprout AI Habitat can hold up to 400 plants. Based on a 30-day growth cycle, the average output would be 5,000 lbs per habitat, per year.  Assuming 0.5 lbs of “green” per serving, each habitat would be able to provide approximately 10,000 servings per year, thus providing 14 people with 2 servings per day for a full year. Our goal is to supply enough food for 1000 people in our first year.

The partnership with the Rice, Beans and Greens program could not be timelier as Panama recently reported concerns about food insecurity as Latin America nears a food crisis.

Help Us Celebrate!

To commemorate this partnership Sprout AI will be hosting an exclusive Sponsorship event at our Centre of Excellence in Panama on July 9th, 2022. 

The purpose of the sponsorship is to expand the number of Sprout AI grow chambers (Habitats), that will be used to provide the Greens to the Active 20-30 Las Cumbres, Rep. of Panama program.

With ongoing reports of pending food shortages, and need to address critical food security issues, Sprout AI has taken a leadership position to showcase how countries, and municipalities, can provide solutions through the adoption of indoor vertical cultivation technologies.

By bringing DINAGRON, Allied Buildings, IDIAP, and Active 20-30 Las Cumbres, Rep. of Panama together utilizing Sprout AI’s leading-edge indoor vertical cultivation technology, Sprout AI has demonstrated a repeatable, economic, practical, repeatable, scalable, safe and secure model to address Food Security Issues that can be replicated globally. 

By showcasing how this can be done to benefit both the direct consumer, as well as the socially disadvantaged, and in a way that is both sustainable, environmentally conscious and demonstrates good corporate governance, Sprout AI has once again proven itself to be a path-setter.   Together we look forward to a whole new level of validation of our technology that will set us above our competitors and provide new pathways to relationships throughout Latin America, and the World.
