Plants require constant attention. Indoor plants often die due to negligence or improper care, and outdoor plants are often affected by weather, temperature and unwanted visitors. It's difficult to create the perfect conditions for gardening without the proper tools. Our founder, Wanjun Gao, experienced these same issues time and time again. He decided to take matters into his own hands.
In 2015, a team of skilled engineers joined the project, and Bifarm was born. The team focused on a technology called Aeroponics that creates the perfect conditions for growing plants indoors. The goal was to create an air or mist environment without the need for soil, using small amounts of water to transmit just the right amount of nutrients. This would create the perfect environment to grow plants easily.
In 2017, Bifarm released a series of indoor aeroponics components, including the Smart Controller, the Root Temperature Control, and the Aero HP Generator (High-Pressure Regulator). Later that year, Bifarm released the AeroKit, a partially assembled aeroponics package and one of the first publicly available personal high-pressure aeroponic kits on the market.Bifarm AeroKit has sparked interest among cultivators across the world, making a typically expensive and inaccessible technology available to the everyday grower.
We have great opportunities working with home and commercial growers to improve our technologies and products. On the research front, we have been actively collaborating with university customers and partners such as AgriTech Center of Cornell University, University of Florida, and Colorado State University. The efforts led to the releases of consumer models like Bud, AeroXPS, and commercial models under Future Farm product lines - SXSW Innovation Award Finalist.
Bifarm Tech is a RIT Venture Creation company and approved by NYSERDA as New York State CleanTech startup. Wanjun Gao, the founder, is also an Endeavor Miami ScaleUp alum, and trained in the NYSERDA EIR program run by Columbia Technology Ventures.
Aeroponic statistics have been collected from scientific articles and publications.
