CUBES Circle is an interdisciplinary research project. It´s consortium consists of researchers and practical partners with expertise in industry, production, consulting and commerce. The project is coordinated by researchers at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. CUBES Circle is part of the initiative Agricultural Systems of the Future under the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, Germany and supported by Projektträger Jülich (PtJ). Our vision of agricultural systems of the future is based on the idea that food will be produced in connected, mutually communicating and standardized production units, the so-called CUBES. Those CUBES act as the basis for a closed food production system. In the CUBES fish, plants as well as insects will be produced.
