Hydroponic Technology or growing of fruits and vegetables without soil is very much feasible especially for metropolitan cities and countries having limited scope for open field crop production. The capital cost involved in hydroponic farming is many times higher than open field and similarly per unit crop yield is many times higher than open field. Hydroponic cultivation is very much required to ensure food security of world growing population. One can manage to grow high quality, disease free and standardized multiple fruits, vegetables and fodder crops in tough weather conditions round the year. This high tech method facilitates us to grow more, grow fast from lesser land, water, energy and other resources.
