  • Patent number: 11038949
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and processor-readable storage media for distributed farming are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes facilitating transfer of produce, at approximately a given stage of a growth cycle of the produce, from a first location to a remote growing unit; analyzing data, captured via multiple sensors within the remote growing unit, wherein the analyzing is carried out by a centralized server communicatively linked to the remote growing unit; and transmitting, via the centralized server to the remote growing unit, instructions pertaining to an adjustment to at least one growing parameter within the remote growing unit, wherein the transmitting is based at least in part on the analyzing of the data, and wherein the transmitting occurs during one or more stages of the growth cycle that is between the given stage and completion of the growth cycle.
