In Fr\u00f6vi, Sweden, a 100,000 m<sup>2<\/sup> greenhouse will do just that.<\/p>\n<p>In just one square meter in this greenhouse, two seeds are planted.\u202fThey grow into 4 plants and when ready for harvest, they produce 80 kg of tomatoes.\u202fThis means that the greenhouse produces 200-300 tons of tomatoes per week &#8211; equivalent to 8,000,000 kg of tomatoes per year.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>A pioneering project <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In Sweden, there is currently a mismatch between supply and demand for tomatoes. In the summer, when the sun is shining, the shelves are overflowing with Swedish tomatoes.\u202fBut when the summer disappears, so do the local tomatoes and imported tomatoes take over.<\/p>\n<p>The RegEnergy project in Fr\u00f6vi is changing this picture.\u202fWith its ideal greenhouse conditions, they can grow tomatoes whatever the season. With 8000 tons of tomatoes produced per year, the greenhouse will be able to supply tomatoes equivalent to about 1\/10 of Sweden&#8217;s total consumption.<\/p>\n<p>Tomato cultivation in Fr\u00f6vi is a well-planned 12-month cycle.\u202fThe seeds are purchased from a Finnish plant breeder and grown for 6 weeks before being moved into the greenhouses.<\/p>\n<p>Here they grow quickly &#8211; 15-30 cm per week &#8211; and produce 3 new leaves and a new bunch of tomatoes every week.\u202fThey grow to a height of 5 meters, guided by ropes from the ceiling.\u202fWhen the plant reaches the ceiling, the tomatoes are moved to the side, cluster by cluster, so the plant can continue to grow &#8211; now only sideways. When the plant has 8 bunches, it is ready for harvest.<\/p>\n<p>You might be tempted to think that growing tomatoes is simply planting a tomato and waiting for it to be harvested. However, this is far from the case. It requires enormous preparation and once the first tomatoes are ready to harvest, there is a 40-week period where tomatoes can be harvested weekly.<\/p>\n<p>This wouldn&#8217;t be possible without the skilled growers who carefully ensure that the plants have the optimal conditions to thrive. You can see and read much more about the important task of a grower in the greenhouse via this link.<\/p>\n<p>Growing tomatoes locally is not only good for the climate but also saves thousands of kilometers of transportation.\u202fIt also produces better tomatoes.\u202fThe longer tomatoes are allowed to stay on the plant, the more sugar builds up.\u202fTomatoes for long transportation have to be harvested early, which means they lose some of their flavor.<\/p>\n<p>Tomatoes from Fr\u00f6vi can be enjoyed by consumers within 24 hours of harvest.\u202fThey are fully ripe, full of flavor, and ready to become a delicious meal.<\/p>\n<p>The project in Fr\u00f6vi is an innovative step for tomato production in Sweden, giving Swedes access to fresh, local, and tasty tomatoes all year round.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Watch all videos here<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h2><strong>The\u00a0<\/strong>Selected RegEnergy fund<\/h2>\n<p>By 2030, it is estimated that up to 53% of Europe&#8217;s energy consumption will be lost in the form of excess heat (https:\/\/www.whyenergyefficiency.com\/solutions\/allsolutions\/the-worlds-largest-untapped-energy-source-excess-heat). In addition, water shortages and drought are a growing problem in several of the countries where tomatoes, for example, are currently produced. It therefore makes sense to move production closer to the consumer.<\/p>\n<p>The project in Fr\u00f6vi is just the first project in the Selected RegEnergy fund. The fund&#8217;s ambition is to establish several projects, including greenhouses, where waste products from industrial production are used for sustainable food and biomaterial production.<\/p>\n<p>[regenergy_brochure]<\/p>\n<p>An investment in the Selected RegEnergy fund is a long-term investment where you as an investor can look forward to an average annual return of over 15%<\/p>\n<p>The selected RegEnergy fund&#8217;s risk classification is 6 out of 7 according to the fund&#8217;s Key Information Document (KID) and you can read the document with central information here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2770","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Selected Group<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Innovation in food production in Sweden: Local, fresh tomatoes packed with flavor - Selected Group\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"\ufeff Watch the video here Imagine a greenhouse the size of 20 football fields that can grow tasty tomatoes all year round.
