RE: RE: tech
RE: RE: techConsiderthis and really let it sink in. A one hectare greenhouse (100 meters X100 meters) could produce 200 million doses of plant based vaccine in a6 month period.
Your match is correct, 100x100=10,000 sq meters = 1 Hectare.
But for some reason Mr. Sheldon thinks 10,000 sq meters = 1 acre. But of course
So 200 million doses would require 2.47 acres, not 1 acre as Mr. Sheldon stated in the news release.
At 1,000 square meters, which Mr. Sheldon indicates is not very large,the Medicago greenhouse could generate 20 million doses over asix-month period. By extension, a 10,000-square-meter greenhouse wouldcover only an acre of land and have a capacity of 200 million doses.
