Smart greenhouses and advanced monitoring systems are transforming agriculture in Mexico, making crops more efficient, sustainable, and productive.
Solar panels.
Current efficiency is capped at around 33%, and scientists in a collaborative partnership are exploring optimal properties in alternative materials.
coffee waste to create plastic
In preliminary tests, a 40% degradation was achieved within 60 days, and the process is expected to be completed in three to four months.
PET bottles
Mexico is a global leader in PET recycling, with over 60% of bottles on the market being reclaimed.
Butadiene Rubber
The material is the most widely used rubber in hoses, seals, shoe soles, latex gloves and more, but it takes millions of years to degrade.
Student using virtual reality equipment.
The immersive digital environment was built using virtual reality and artificial intelligence technologies, along with gamification strategies.
