Abstract
At the Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology UMSICHT research into new forms of agriculture has been ongoing for several years. At UMSICHT, the concepts of ""Indoor Farming"", ""Urban Agriculture"" and ""Smart Farming"" encompass not only the development of technology building blocks for illumination new plant breeding systems, new materials and non‐destructive analysis or nutrient recovery, but also include the adaptation of plants to cultivation without soil. This chapter presents examples of approaches that can shape a future, transformation‐oriented agricultural economy.
