MEPA – compact for transport
DLR's mobile deployable plant cultivation unit (Mobil Entfaltbare PflanzenAnbaueinheit; MEPA) is so compact that up to 75 units can be transported in a 40-foot container. Using the simplest MEPA unit, the 'minimal system', a total of 3.1 tonnes of lettuce can be harvested per freight container and harvest cycle.
