We contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals by United Nations (UNSDG)
-
Food Security
Agriculture yield has been disrupted by climate change & shrinking arable land; 1/3 of food wasted globally each year.
By growing fresh produce locally in densely populated urban areas, we not only reduce transportation chains, with vertical aquaponics farming, we can ensure efficient use of vertical space that minimizes environmental impact and conserves water and energy resources as well. It’s a resilient solution for food security by reducing vulnerability to climate-related disruptions.
-
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions
The extraction and processing of materials, fuels and food contribute half of total global GHG emissions.
Vertical aquaponics farming uses up to 90% lesser water and energy compared to traditional soil-based agriculture. By harnessing natural processes and optimizing resource use, we can contribute to clean energy goals by reducing the need for artificial lighting, pesticides, and synthetic fertilizers, resulting in a more sustainable energy footprint.
-
Farming in Silos
Traditional agricultural practices often operate in silos. Each vertical—whether it’s crop cultivation or aquaculture—generates its own waste streams, which has untapped potential.
Circular agriculture at V-Plus Agritech eliminates the use of chemical pesticides and synthetic fertilizers, relying on naturally occurring microbes to maintain plant health and crop growth. Dismantling silos in agriculture unlocks hidden benefits—nutrient synergy, energy efficiency, waste valorization, biodiversity, and circularity.

Environment Impact of Agriculture
Climate Action begins at the local level in Singapore: conserving water, promoting energy efficiency, educating the public, implementing policies, and embracing circular practices.
Vertical aquaponics farming in Singapore maximizes space utilization, allowing more crops to be grown per square footage, significantly reduces land requirements in urban areas. Plant growth also captures carbon dioxide, mitigating climate change, promoting sustainable food production in urban areas.

About us
V-Plus Agritech, established in 2021, pioneers smart and sustainable farming solutions. Our multidisciplinary approach integrates traditionally separate agricultural disciplines, fostering circularity, and we do this through Building, Growing, Engaging and Educating.
Our Vision
We envision a future where farming operates in a sustainable circular cycle, Blending innovative spirit with disciplined execution, from aquaponics to vertical farming, we explore cutting-edge solutions to establish hyperlocal farms in every cities and arid communities. Together, we’re sowing the seeds of a greener future.
Our Mission
Our mission is clear: to revolutionize farming, a world where circularity is the foundation of sustainable farming. Our commitment extends beyond borders—from cities to desert regions. By closing the loops of food, water, waste, and energy, we cultivate resilience and nourish communities. Our passion for circular agriculture knows no bounds. We’re determined to move the needle toward a greener, more resilient planet.

Innovating circularity & food security
"Circular agriculture is a way to farm sustainably and we do this through R&D and innovations in agricultural technologies. With education, it enables farmers and smallholders to increase productivity, focusing on producing quality food for self-sustainability in their local communities.”

Promoting sustainable farming
"I truly believe in aquaponic farming method as it provides an efficient and scalable method of growing produce with much lesser resource requirements than conventional farming, empowering communities to grow more with less."
