Combination planting where certain crops are planted together to stave off pests or enhance taste as old as farming itself. But up until recently, its been difficult to be precise about where and how different crops can benefit from each other. Benedikt Gro, a UK-based interaction designer, is using algorithmic processing to improve on a practice that's thousands of years old.
