AgTech Ecosystem Kentucky: Inception study

An inception study has been conducted of an intended feasibility study into the opportunities of AgTech ecosystem development, in particular greenhouse horticulture, in Kentucky. The current situation and possible follow-up steps have been mapped out by means of a spatial analysis of production locations for greenhouse horticulture, a market and value chain analysis, technical analysis of making production more sustainable and the governance aspect. Obstacles and opportunities for the Dutch and Kentucky (horticultural) industry are also described. The study provides recommendations on these aspects for follow-up activities to enable AgTech ecosystem development.
