The Philippines has achieved a significant milestone in modern agriculture with the launch of its first indoor vertical strawberry farm in Pasig City. Bureau of Plant Industry Director Gerard Glenn Panganiban led the ribbon-cutting ceremony, marking a new chapter in the country's pursuit of innovative, controlled-environment farming.



The facility, strategically located within Pasig City, leverages advanced technology to optimize plant growth in a controlled indoor environment. This automated system ensures precise regulation of light, temperature, and humidity, enabling year-round strawberry production despite the tropical climate.


“This project marks a significant step forward for Philippine agriculture,” Director Panganiban said during the event. “It highlights the potential of technology-driven solutions to address food security challenges, particularly in urban settings.”

The farm utilizes vertical growing techniques to maximize limited urban spaces, producing fresh, high-quality strawberries without the constraints of traditional farming. The technology employed ensures efficient use of water and energy, contributing to the country’s sustainability goals.

Beyond strawberry cultivation, the team behind the project plans to introduce other crops and expand into strawberry-based products. The farm is also set to launch agritourism initiatives, including educational tours for students and enthusiasts to raise awareness about the benefits of indoor vertical farming.

“This facility demonstrates how urban agriculture can contribute to food security while providing new business and employment opportunities,” Panganiban added.




Future collaborations with local distributors, retailers, and food chains are already in the pipeline to bring these locally grown strawberries to more Filipino households. The initiative aims to reduce the country's dependence on imported strawberries while offering a fresher and more sustainable alternative.
