Synergy Marine Group growing vegetables on its vessels using AI tech

Synergy Marine Group has started growing vegetables on its vessels on a pilot basis using technology provided by Agwa.

“As part of a pilot project, Synergy’s managed Suezmax tanker ‘EFFIE MAERSK’ has been using Agwa’s cutting-edge AI-directed cultivation devices since September,” according to a statement on Thursday.

These units, which are about the same size as standard refrigerators or wine coolers, allow the crew to enjoy freshly picked vegetables in the middle of the ocean, it added.
