Hydroponics | How farming without soil can be a commercial success

We all know that plants are grown in soil and they get the nutrients from it. But in hydroponics, they are grown in nutrient rich water. Watch the video to know more about this unique soilless farming technique.

Finally it comes to price. India is cost centric and people cannot afford 60lks one shot at a time. This is not at all for all farmers. Those who have initial investments and ready to take high risk then they can go ahead with this approach. I would suggest. Cost cutting is the really required for this approach then farmer can look into it

[@meghanags3191]

Hi @vigneshn3446. I agree with your opinion. If taken a collaborative approach, hydroponic agriculture technology has good scope to be in the mainstream. Also, its implementable in small scale in individual houses.

[@spiceytradeboat8893]

Excellent system and video! 🎉👌🌿🌿

[@spiceytradeboat8893]

Question on costs, why not charge the same as traditional farmers? It’s possible to grow more with less labor, I would think just moving the product would be a priority.
I hear you though, getting a premium is good, costs are subjective and variable. All part of the assembly line. Excellent products and system. This is the future of food!

exactly what i was going to ask

[@tejasnarayanappa3736]

cost of electricity is high cause the motor needs to be running 24*7

[@pillazamindar8107]

@@tejasnarayanappa3736 Solar is the solution.

Superb

[@ht5389]

Great initiative considering 70% less water is used.

[@MANOJAKN]

According to research plants required 160+ minerals but they are giving 16 minerals from this i understood that , like making sambar using 3 ingredients.

[@daniellefernandes7510]

this is the future

[@khznm2174]

U should produce this kind of videos... Very good to c...

[@raghusudhir3641]

Aeroponics has lesser chaos and we can even grow plants for roots (radish, turnip etcetera) in Aeroponics. Water consumption is also lesser. What do you say?

[@sachin_viratism2001]

Great

[@gumballbreath8827]

Well-made video. thank you.

[@spiceytradeboat8893]

Do you use growing medium in the net pots, like pea gravel or hydroton? It appears as if the roots were placed in the net pots with out any medium. I like the idea of allowing the plant to stand by itself.
Amazing setup. I like the horizontal pipes in an angled vertical stack. Do you find this arrangement to be most effective as compared to vertical tubes of sorts?
Great setup altogether 👍🤘

[@pritichaudhari2072]

Great work but I don't think that it will get marketed in India as our country is now moving towards the organic vegetables...

[@oswaldhiren0610]

organic vegetables have loads of pesticides. No matter how organic ur food is, it contains poison . THIS IS the need of the hour

[@jimingeorge4591]

Could something like this be built on terraces?

[@Prat-zi1ou]

Yes

[@MetalGearMk3]

I wonder if they are also doing Aeroponics?

[@Hariharansubramaniaiyer]

Want to know much more

[@TubaParveen-cd2ys]

Can one enlist name of grains possible season wise round the year to be grown by hydroponic system ???????????

[@meghanags3191]

In this setup at Hydro Garden Farm, Bangalore, you can succesfully grow exotic and desi greens throughout the year. Seasons doesnt matter.

[@se15_gaikar_harsh_rajesh83]

How can we connect with these farmers?

[@jaychoudhury1401]

Soil doesnot only nutrients but much more than that, will the so called food grown in this manner, will be called even FOOD.
Is there any process to certify that these have all the necessary nutrition without any harmful ingredients.

[@tejasnarayanappa3736]

what do you mean by much more? please explain

[@vedanthbaliga7686]

How feasible is this? What would be the price diff btwn normal and these hydroponic produce?

[@meghanags3191]

Hydroponic produce price point will definitly be higher than the conventional produce. In return people will benefit with better health as we dont use pesticides & grown in protected environment. The produce in our farm is of premium & export quality.

[@chizzlemo3094]

Good luck my Indian friends, you are tech leaders, love from UK!

[@ReenaMountainLife]

You have such a great connection with the land.

[@Bosri_bpfarm]

I like to grow hydroponically, because I don't have to water it.

[@JacoKruger.]

you put less work in but you are more expensive? you are not tilling land and use tractors and implements, diesel or alot of labour, so why are you more expensive? greed? ok sure, that would make sense, one down side tho, you wont be able to feed a nation, not at the scale you are working at

[@tejasnarayanappa3736]

to recover the 60 Lakh invested boss

[@1ndianRepublican]

👏

[@mallikasanthosh3360]

super

[@shravyaaswath9024]

Amazing work 🤯❤

[@meghanags3191]

Thank you @shravyaaswath902.

[@indiancricket9532]

Can share location of farming land.

[@therealgreg5653]

now how do you get a combine harvester into hydroponics?

[@meghanags3191]

You can grow multiple varieties in the same setup

[@prabingautam9063]

Yes hydroponic is the future of farming and it is best solution of fights climate change and food security for growing population...
