This case study is based on an intervention that intends to introduce farming technology to remote locations. This technology – called “farm in a container” – uses a controlled environment to produce vegetables and is useful in areas where vegetables cannot be farmed in open air due to extreme cold or warm temperatures. The container comes with a solar panel and a backup generator to address its electricity needs. Therefore, in addition to selling the produce they grow, the operator can also sell electricity.
Please populate the model provided in the sections marked with an arrow (⮕). Refer to the legend on the cover page tab to know what you should be populating. Note that all the model inputs and time period calculations (flags) are already in the model. You should review the calculations in the first tab “I Inv Criteria” to learn more about modelling techniques and use this to complete the rest of the tabs in the model.
