The increasing demand for food, the lack of natural resources and arable land, recent restrictions on energy consumption require an immediate solution in terms agricultural activities. This paper’s objective was to review hydroponics (a new soilless cultivation technology) compare it with conventional agriculture (soil cultivation) regarding its environmental impact water consumption. soil loss...

The rose is a leader in the cultivation of cut crops, decorativeness which beyond doubt. Increasing attractiveness bouquet flowers priority task modern industrial floriculture. A number plant growth regulators can significantly improve decorative qualities flower-cutting products. During research, it was proved that immunomodulatory with protective functions increased valuable and economic prop...

Aeration is considered beneficial for hydroponics. However, little information available on the effects of aeration, and even less solutions that use bubble flow their agronomic effects. In this study, aeration intensity plants were studied through cultivation experiments field visualization. It was found growth did not increase linearly with an in intensity. From results when within low range ...

Hydroponics is one of the agricultural techniques with great potential to produce plant products. also a pattern breeding that environmentally friendly and does not require large area ​​land. Although it has been developed for long time ago, quality quantity hydroponics really give significant results. In order improve products, modernization step needed by implementing an automation system bas...

Internet of things (IoT)-enabled systems are being used to monitor, control, and optimize agricultural like hydroponics. Optimization these requires monitoring various growth factors for plants which will also require multiple sensors. With the number wireless sensors needed track conditions hydroponics system, sensor network grow in size complexity. In this paper, a hybrid IoT-based with both ...

Limited-cluster production systems may be a useful strategy to increase crop production and profitability for the greenhouse tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill). In this study, using an ebb-and-flood hydroponics system, we modified plant architecture and spacing and determined the effects on fruit yield and harvest index at two light levels. Single-cluster plants pruned to allow two leaves ab...

This study describes the variation in the mean relative shoot Ca content within the angiosperms at the ordinal level. Data were derived from studies in the literature in which the shoot Ca content of two or more species had been compared, and from a hydroponic experiment in which plants were selected to represent the relative number of species within each angiosperm order. Across all angiosperm...
