Vertical Farming Podcast: CEOs & Founders in AgTech and CEA · 176: From Panic to Prevention: Pathogen Management Strategies for Indoor Growers · 10 Oct 2025 podcast

Or some of the things that you learned when you were working with the water in those uh controlled environments?

Is that something that the uh the growers usually catch when it's too late, or do they see that as a result of like the how well or how poorly their crops are grown?

So as you said you had some familiarity with the CEA space, was that primarily on in the glasshouse side, greenhouses, or were you looking at actual pure indoor vertical farms as well?

And does size play a role in terms of like how prevalent these types of issues are?

So when you started Rimrock, did you already have partners in mind that you were planning to work with or maybe people that came over from the water treatment relationships you had built?

Mm-hmm.

And so when you look at the offerings that you provide, is it more from a proactive stance or when people come to you, is it almost like there's a fire drill going on and they need to figure out what's going on so if they reach out to you?

And so who would you for the folks that are just just hearing about Rim Rock for the very first time, like how would you describe the suite of services that you provide and like who like was would be an ideal client for you?

What's a typical engagement look like when folks start to work with you?

Is this something that happens over the course of weeks or is it ongoing?

You did mention benchmark and testing.

And obviously this, you know, we you've mentioned also earlier this idea of monitoring the data and helping farmers make decisions based on that data.

So I'm curious what that cycle looks like uh for folks that are just getting started with this, because a lot of it's probably an education process for them as well.

And then I just I'm curious about the education process for far I mean, as you might imagine, and you probably experienced firsthand how much stuff growers and farmers have on their plate and and day to day operations.

And this is probably just one of many things that they're keeping an eye on.

So and uh h how do they come to you and not feel overwhelmed in terms of like how to manage this, mitigate it, but also, you know, future proof it?

You know, how much of it is education

on your part to them in terms of like how they got to this point?

And then, you know, this the way you answer this might actually take away business from you, but I'm curious from a prevention standpoint, like what can farms look at, you know, and how can they think about their environment in a way that takes into consideration the wide variety and maybe we'll go through like the laundry list of the most common, but I think, you know, when you mentioned some of the common microbes and pathogens that that can appear in an indoor farm, you know

What can farmers you know, how should they be thinking about this from a preventative standpoint?
