The first floating farm in the world has been realized in Rotterdam.

The Floating Farm is an iconic design using the latest technology, bringing the urban dweller as close as possible to the origin and preparation of daily food.

Experience description

The reasoning behind the development of the Floating Farm is the increasing scarcity of agricultural land and growing populations, and the need to find new ways to continue to feed the world population in the future. Also, by building on the water it is possible to bring food production back into the cities, where space is available on canals, rivers and harbors.
