Aeroponics Farm, Luxury House, and 3 Cottages for Sale
AEROPONICS FARM
Aeroponic systems nourish plants with nothing more than nutrient-laden mist. The roots are held in a soilless growing medium, such as coco coir, over which nutrient-laden water is periodically pumped. Aeroponics simply dispenses with the growing medium (soil), leaving the roots hanging in the air, where they are periodically sprayed by specially designed misting devices.
The extra oxygen they are exposed to results in faster growth. Aeroponic systems are also extremely water- efficient. These closed-loop systems use 95 percent less irrigation than plants grown in soil. And since the nutrients are held in the water, they get recycled, too.
In addition to these efficiencies, aeroponics’ eco-friendly reputation is bolstered by the ability to grow large quantities of food in small spaces. The approach is mainly employed in indoor vertical farms, which are increasingly common in cities – cutting down on the environmental costs of getting food from field to plate.
