Soilless Cultivation

As the population of our planet soars at an alarming rate and arable land available for crop production declines incessantly, soilless cultivation/ hydroponics offer us a lifeline of sorts and allow us to produce crops. Traditional agriculture is cultivation of crops/plants in soil. The plants, in fact, do not need soil to grow but for its nutrients. If the plants are grown in nutrient solutions or any other substrate (other than soil) containing essential nutrients, the practice is known as soilless gardening/ dirt free farming. The composition of mineral solutions depends on the crop under cultivation. Ideally, mineral solutions contain essential cations and anions, namely magnesium, calcium, potassium, sulphates and nitrates. We design and install the Gro-Best Structure for Soilless Farming by our skilled & experienced technicians/Operators or provide the various inputs required for soilless cultivation and followed by regular after sales services.

Advantages

Can overcome temporal (seasonal) and spatial (agroclimatic) problems of crops.

Uses much less water, no percolation and runoff.

High density cropping. (i.e. more number of plants in small area)

Faster growth, early harvest/ fruiting and with extended duration or some crops can be grown round the year.

Bigger yield with better quality and shelf life.

Less number of field operations for successful crop production.

Clean hygienic environment.

Efficient nutrient utilization.

Can be grown by landless people on their rooftops/ in windowsills/inside houses or backyards.
