FAQ

WHO CAN USE AGRIKUBIC?

We have designed AGRIKUBIC to satisfy the needs of two specific areas: production and investigation.
All agricultural producers dedicated to traditional greenhouse crops who may want to undertake part of their production indoors. Buds, shoots and green leaves grow much better infoors; they have short cycles
and AGRIKUBIC allows for their cultivation all year round without having to worry ever again about plagues, insects, rain or hailstorms. Thanks to its remote control, you can relocate part of the produce,
bringing it closer to certain clients who may be harder (and more expensive) to reach. However, it is not only made for producers, but also for restaurants, hostels, school canteens who may want to offer fresh,
zero-km produce, or military or humanitarian programmes.
Regarding AGRIKUBIC's investigation, it is a perfect alternative to phytotrons, nurseries or cultivation chambers. It has the same features, plus more such as hydroponics, the remote control and the large space
available at a much cheaper price per square metre. So, biotechnology companies, seed and fertiliser producers, research centres, labs, pharmaceutical companies or universities are some of the entities
whose work can be facilitated by AGRIKUBIC’S features.
