Farming is an ancient activity; crops like wheat, peas and lentils were cultivated and domesticated around 12,000 years ago in the Levant. Since then, innovations like crop rotation, enclosure, the various mechanical inventions of the Industrial Revolution and the development of high-yielding crops and synthetic fertilisers during the Green Revolution have all helped increase productivity. However, until very recently, farming was still fundamentally dependent on uncontrollable and unpredictable natural phenomena: sunshine, rain, soil, pests.

The advent of indoor and vertical farming technology is now revolutionising the agricultural industry, giving growers unprecedented levels of precision and productivity. Indoor farms require neither sunlight nor soil, they produce healthier, stronger crops 365 days of the year, and they use up to 95% less water than conventional farming methods.

IAG was born out of a desire to harness the incredible power of new technologies and apply them to the age-old practice of farming. We believe that the next revolution in agriculture will happen indoors – and we want to lead it. The IAG management team comprises experts in aeroponics, microbiology, nutrition, the fresh produce market, agri-tech, engineering and manufacturing – each of whom brings formidable knowledge and experience of their fields.

IAG researches and develops farming technologies in house. Our world-class patented vertical aeroponics technology , which includes cultivation systems and growing enclosures, is taking vertical farming to the next level. It enables the impeccable growth of crops with zero pesticides and minimal environmental impact. We also manufacture and sell our farming systems  across the world, unlocking a brighter future for farmers and encouraging new entrants to this crucial industry.

In 2019, IAG successfully completed phase 1 of its indoor vertical farm  in Berkshire. Across 10,000 square feet of land, we deploy our own technologies to grow exceptional produce for major retailers nationwide and for the local communities. Our farm runs 365 days a year growing fruit, vegetables, herbs and salads that are free from pesticides and packed full of nutrition and flavour. We have now embarked on phase 2 of our development and expansion, and we are offering the opportunity to get involved – find out how
