About Us
Sigmar Farms
Welcome to Sigmar Farms, where we redefine agriculture through innovation, sustainability, and a commitment to future-proofing food production. Our mission is to become a global leader in agrifood technology, blending advanced soilless farming techniques with traditional agriculture and poultry farming to deliver a holistic, efficient, and profitable farming model.
Our Vision
Sigmar Farms is more than just a farm; it is a centre of creativity, validation, and inspiration for next-generation agricultural practices. We aim to be a global asset that fosters vital national and international partnerships, driving the evolution of sustainable farming. Our commitment to accessibility ensures that all farmers, from local communities to international stakeholders, can benefit from the insights and technologies developed here.
How We Do It
Our approach combines hydroponics within cutting-edge greenhouse systems, traditional farming, and poultry production:
- Hydroponics & Greenhouse Systems: We allocate 70% of our land to hydroponic farming, housed within advanced greenhouses. These structures allow us to control the environment precisely, optimise water usage, and grow crops year-round, regardless of external weather conditions. By implementing vertical farming techniques, we maximise space efficiency and ensure consistent yields of crops like tomatoes, cucumbers, and leafy greens.
- Traditional Farming: We reserve 30% of our land for traditional agriculture to produce chicken feed. This area also serves as a testing ground for comparing yields between hydroponic and soil-based farming, offering valuable data on which method performs best under specific conditions.
- Poultry Farming: Our broiler and layer operations support our holistic farming model. We produce eggs and poultry meat with modern cage systems housing layers and free range broilers. Automated feeding and manure removal systems maintain high hygiene and efficiency standards, while our incubators ensure a steady supply of healthy chicks.
Overcoming Challenges with Innovation
- Technical Expertise: We partner with agronomists and veterinarians, employing high-tech sensors and automated systems to monitor and balance nutrients, pH levels, and animal health, ensuring optimal conditions for plants and poultry.
- Dependency on Power: To mitigate power dependency, we’ve integrated solar systems and backup generators, guaranteeing uninterrupted operations even during outages.
- Resource Efficiency: We leverage the natural synergy between our farming systems to recycle nutrients and water, significantly reducing our environmental impact.
Our Commitment to Sustainability
Sigmar Farms is committed to building a sustainable future for agriculture. By embracing soilless agriculture, we reduce water usage by up to 90% and minimise the need for pesticides. Our blend of hydroponics, traditional farming, and poultry integration not only boosts productivity but also showcases the scalability and adaptability of these methods across diverse environments worldwide.
