SINGAPORE: Some farms in Singapore are pivoting to products that are cheaper than imports and better suited to the tropical climate – with support from government initiatives that encourage experimentation. Crops such as Italian kale and basil are harvested fresh at Tomato Town’s farms in Woodlands and Jurong. The company has been operating for almost four years, supplying produce to supermarkets and restaurants. It grows about 3,000kg of vegetables each month and is now conducting trials to identify other suitable varieties to cultivate. These crops must be resistant to pests, able to thrive in Singapore’s climate and competitively priced.   https://www.channelnewsasia.com/singapore/farms-exploring-new-crops-shared-logistics-5447941 (ICE SINGAPORE)
