Hydroponics: Soil-less Farming that uses Resources Efficiently
Farming World today is looking for ways that would be high on yield and low on everything else. Combining technology, science, traditional concepts and developing solutions that would fit the need of today is what it is aiming at. There are many points that will be considered for new technology to be the latest trend in farming. One such trending farming technique is Hydroponics.
Hydroponics is becoming popular and is often referred to as soil-less farming. This technique uses only water and mineral-solution dissolved in water to grow plants in minimum space. This makes it very suitable for; home gardening, terrace farming and large farms. The hydroponics nutrients used in this technique can come from specially formulated chemical fertilisers.
Hydroponics Benefits
The simple implementation and effective results of hydroponics have found it many supporters. Some of its benefits are:
- No requirement of soil which means plants can be grown anytime, anywhere.
- Better use of available space especially small areas.
- Growers or farmers have better control on nutrients, temperature etc.
- Effective use of the precious resource named water, as such plants in the tray use only the minimum amount of water required and moreover the water is re-circulated.
- Effective use of nutrients as growers provides only the required nutrients for a plant.
- No harmful chemicals are used for cultivation resulting in better quality, and healthier plants.
- The labour cost and timing is greatly reduced thus saving on cost.
- Plants grow up to 50% faster than they would in the soil, due to a rich supply of nutrients.
- Plants can be harvested throughout the year as the growth environment is controlled.
The Basic Hydroponic System
A hydroponic farming system, the latest trend in agriculture, basically involves a growing tray, growing medium, a reservoir and a pump. These components put together to create a hydroponics system where plants can grow without soil. The basic working is as follows:
- Plants are potted in a growing tray (without soil) which is usually a tube or an open tray with small caskets with abundant holes for roots.
- A growing medium is provided in the growing tray. It can be provided continuously in a flow, or can be flooded at once and then drained, or any other way depending on the user and plant requirement.
- A reservoir supplies the growing tray with the medium at regular intervals determined manually or using a time and the pump. The excess of growing medium is drained out of the tray to the reservoir.
