The specialty crop industry plays an enormously important part in American agriculture

The USDA Specialty Crops Research Initiative Award will include $2.44 million from the USDA and an equal amount of in-kind contributions of equipment and services from industry partners. The project is titled "Developing LED Linear high bay light Technology and Practices for Sustainable Specialty-Crop Production." Merrigan pointed out that” The specialty crop industry plays an enormously important part in American agriculture and is valued at approximately $50 billion every year. These projects will be key to providing specialty crop producers with the information and tools they need to successfully grow, process, and market safe and high-quality products." In the process of the project, Mitchell will test led high bay light on high-wire tomatoes. He believes that using LED lights on the sides of plants will increase photosynthesis and flowering, improving yield.

After the exercise of the EfficientLights option, EfficientLights will become a wholly-owned subsidiary and the Company will realize 100% of the EfficientLights profit, and will no longer reduce its net in...
