Singapore makes progress on home-grown food target


The plan is to use indoor growing technologies and data analytics to optimise production. - ST FILE

SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): Singapore's ambition to produce about 30 per cent of its food needs locally has made significant progress despite the disruption from the pandemic.

The "30 by 30" goal to reach that milestone by 2030 was set last year and marks a significant increase, given the country produces less than 10 per cent of its nutritional requirements now.
