Abstract
A network of modules is provided that maximizes agricultural land usage. Each module includes a water collection structure supported above agricultural land. The water collection structure may include a mechanism for distributing photonic energy to plants growing on the agricultural land; and a water distribution system for distributing collected water from said water collection structure to plants growing on the agricultural land and/or the soil in which said plants are planted. Plural modules are networked together with plumbing that serves to both provide water transport to and from the modules and structural support to the network of modules. Such a configuration is particularly useful to increase land usage efficiencies on sloped land.
Claims12
A network of farming modules, each farming module including a water collection structure supported on one or more legs above agricultural land in a configuration that allows agricultural growth beneath said water collection structure, the network comprising:
- plural farming modules interconnected to one another with a plumbing network,
- wherein the farming modules are at least partially supported and maintained in structural alignment with said plumbing network, and
- wherein at least some of the water collected from each module is distributed through said plumbing network.
