Onboard 10+ local innovators in Living Labs
Co-create prototypes with 10+ piloting stakeholders
80-100 demonstrators of circular agri-food innovations
AGLOBE Development Center has a small station as well as a partial greenhouse for initial testing and experimentation with a total area of approximately 9m². A larger Living Lab (LL) houses a greenhouse, approximately 60m², as well as an office space. The facilities are located in Alimosho Local Government Area of Lagos State, Nigeria.
In Nigeria, AGLOBE Development Center’s LL is currently making significant strides towards innovative and sustainable urban farming practices with the fabrication of aquaponics and re-circulating aquaculture systems (RAS) . This dynamic food production system ensures that fish wastewater is recycled through filteration, and nitrification for plant uptake. AGLOBE Development Center also envisages black soldier fly, rabbit and snail farming for food security and upcycling of waste.
