Eden Green Technology, a farming technology company based in Texas, is utilizing indoor vertical farming to disrupt the fresh produce supply chain.

Another company, Revol Greens, has also opened a large controlled environment agriculture lettuce facility in Texas. Meanwhile, Mexico has imposed a 50% tariff on white corn exports from the US, as part of a trade dispute over genetically modified corn.
