The study was conducted from September 2022 to June 2023 in the municipality of Silang, Cavite for the proposal of a proposed complex and research development focusing on the integration of modern farming in the province of Cavite, especially in the Municipality of Silang. The general objective of the study was to develop a design proposal for an Urban Vertical Farming and Research Hub with The Integration of Modern Agriculture Systems for High-Value Crops. 



The idea of the proposal was to bring a new dimension of modern farming to the municipality of Silang and eventually to the whole country. Urban Vertical Farming and Research Hub should compose facilities and spaces in which it will provide a modern solution to lessen the impact of geophysical and climatic conditions on the production and performance of the agricultural sector, and make a learning center open for people to learn and adapt the practice of mechanization and modernization of agricultural farming through the utilization of modern farming systems. 


The main facilities covered in the study were Vertical Farming, Greenhouse Farms, Vertical Plantation Beds, Research and Development Facilities, Training Facilities, Production Facilities, and Storage Facilities, following the guidelines issued by the Department of Agriculture. 

In this project, the following factors were taken into consideration: rules and regulations, character, orientation, circulation, and zoning, accessibility, light, and ventilation, landscaping, spatiality, atmosphere, and technology. The project's supporters then reached a decision regarding the design tactics employed after evaluating and researching the aspects.
