Armela Farms operates a state-of-the-art, semi-closed ModulAIR greenhouse in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, dedicated to year-round production of lettuce. The facility, covering over 30.000 m2, utilizes advanced hydroponic systems and climate control technologies to optimize plant growth in the challenging desert environment.
Leveraging our expertise in advanced greenhouse design, climate control, and automation, we delivered a fully integrated data-driven system. Together with our partners, including Hoogendoorn Growth Management and Rijk Zwaan, we ensure optimal growing conditions through precise monitoring of temperature, humidity, and other critical parameters.
A key feature is its water management system. By capturing and recycling air cooler condensate, the greenhouse significantly reduces its water consumption, addressing the region’s water scarcity issues. The closed loop irrigation system further minimizes water usage, aligning with sustainable agricultural practices.
With a production capacity of over 9 million lettuce heads annually, Armela Farms contributes to the UAE's food security goals by providing fresh, locally grown produce.
