Aeroponic Farming Benefits: Maximizing Yield with Less Water
Aeroponics is a method of growing plants where the roots are exposed to air & misted with a nutrient-rich solution. Here are the benefits of aeroponics
As crops are grown in indoors and nutrient absorption of plants is more, there is a increase in yields with year round production
Higher yields
It is perfect for areas with limited water supplies because it uses up to 90% less water than conventional soil-based techniques
Water efficiency
Vertical aeroponic systems have more space, enabling denser planting and higher yields per square foot
Space Utilization
Aeroponic is a soil free cultivation method, there is less chance of soil-borne pests and diseases, which results in healthier plants
Pest control
As aeroponics have closed loop system, nutrient solution is efficiently absorbed by plant roots, minimizing nutrient waste
Nutrient control
Plants have better access to oxygen and nutrients, plants can grow up to 50% faster, than traditional method
Faster growth rate
Aeroponics require less water and pesticides which creates an impact on sustainable and environmentally friendly farming methods
