As the age of technology and the evolutions increased what
happened to the quality of life? Very few are interested in this and are trying
to develop the very idea. Let’s just take the example of agriculture. For most
of the agriculture to take place the world is only encountering its decrease in
quality but not increase. The reasons for this are thousands and can be
accounted for all the human actions. Quite opposite to the very aim to improve
the conditions of human life. Leaving aside all the antagonisms of the
discoveries let us go ahead into the future considering that the soil condition
goes on degrading in such a way that there will not be any scope of growing any
plants for food consumption after the next hundred years .Then how would the
habitats of earth actually survive?
The possible answer for the above question can be the “Hydroponics”.
It is the method of the hydroponics can come from an array of different
sources; these can include but are not limited to byproduct from fish waste,
duck manure, or normal nutrients. The first known published work on
growing terrestrial plants without soil was the 1627 book Sylva Sylvarum or A
Natural History by Francis Bacon,
printed a year after his death. Water culture became a popular research
technique after that.
The evolution of this kind of farming excited
botanists and also involved people who were interested with
agriculture; however, it did not cause a fast revolution in farming.
As people started to be worried about the pesticides, as
well as other toxins in plants produced by large-scale farming operations, need
for hydroponics all of a sudden increased. Plants produced by
hydroponic techniques do not have any pesticides; therefore they pose
absolutely no danger to humans.
Many individual households these days are trying to use this
technique in their backyard.
This kind of farming has also been introduced in the first
world nations and also creating an increase in food production dealing with the
economic issues. This technique has evolved in such a way which is also making
the country environmentally friendly to have its own supply and then export the
produce in neighboring countries. And there are many more advantages.
Hydroponics farming system generally consists of plant root
support system and separate supply constituent for nutrients, oxygen and water
each. This farming is also emerging as the one of the emerging startups and
will also increase in near future. Initial cost of setting up the indoor
hydroponic zip farm is assumed to be $110k.
The Zip farm is the most popular indoor/vertical farm
package. This is a small indoor farm that provides year round production and is
easily by managed by a single farm operator. Almost all plants can be
grown with this technique but Herbs and greens are the most appropriate crops
for indoor farming, and they are also some of the most profitable plants to
grow hydroponically.
Therefore this generation should probably concentrate on
this idea and develop new concepts of agriculture keeping all the environmental
issues and for the benefit of future generations.
