NANO-BOOSTED TOMATOES: UNRAVELLING THE POTENTIAL OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN HYDROPONICS
Abstract: Hydroponics, an innovative soilless plant cultivation technique, has emerged as a sustainable approach for growing tomato crops, addressing challenges like water-use efficiency and reduced reliance on pesticides, contributing to sustainable tomato production. The integration of two cutting-edge technologies, Nanotechnology and Hydroponics, introduces the concept of "smart agriculture." This involves the use of nanofertilizers, often referred to as "smart fertilizers," which facilitate efficient nutrient delivery, leading to enhanced plant growth and …

Hybrid Hydroponic System: A Sustainable Technology on Facade for Grey Water Recycling for High Rise Buildings
Abstract: Water, the need of life, is a renewable resource covering two-thirds of our planet. However, a very small proportion is effectively available for human use. It is likely to pose the greatest challenge due to the increased demand with population rise, economic development and shrinking supplies due to over-exploitation and pollution. Grey water reuse is a sustainable and attractive option to cope with global water shortages, which can save 40-70% …

Utility of Wi-Fi SoC in Hydroponics for Assistive Technology
Abstract: This paper is a cumulative effort towards building a smart Monitoring system for Hydroponics farms. This system will ease out the monitoring process for the stakeholders as hydroponics is very sensitive process and it require proper monitoring because even if one of its nutrient will increase or go in deficit it will lead to crop failure, so this system will measure each of the affecting parameter via sensors and send …

Smart Aerophonic and Hydrophonic Farming Using ESP8266 Module with Mobile Application
Abstract: This paper examines the creative use of ESP8266 modules in mobile application-controlled smart aerophonic and hydroponic farming systems. An extremely productive and resource-efficient kind of soilless growing is provided by hydroponic and aerophonic farming techniques. The connectivity required to remotely monitor and control these systems is provided by the inexpensive Wi-Fi microcontroller known as the ESP8266 module. Farmers may ensure ideal growing conditions by controlling environmental factors like pH, temperature, …

Short Review on Indoor Farming a Future of the Country
Abstract: We are currently confronted with unstoppable tendencies in population growth, water scarcity, urbanization, and ongoing and persistent climatic change. All of these factors lead to dwindling arable land stocks per person. Land resources for agriculture are dwindling, and officials in the country are grappling with issues of sustainability and feeding the country's fast rising population. Exemplified urban vertical farming is the ideal approach for increasing food production in the future. …

Sorghum vulgare Plus Azospirillum lipoferum and Rhizobium tropici with NH4NO3 at 50% Reduce N2O Releasing
Abstract: Sorghum vulgare, a gramineae of commercial value, requires NH4NO3 for healthy growth, that in excess causes loss of soil productivity and the release of N2O, a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. An alternative solution to reduce and optimize NH4NO3 with: Azospirillum lipoferum and Rhizobium tropici. The objective of this work was: to analyze the effect of A. lipoferum and R. tropici 50%. For this, A. lipoferum and R. …

Urban agriculture to enhance a city from a sustainability point of view
Abstract: As we all know, 70 percent of rural households still depend primarily on agriculture. The core activity of rural areas is agriculture still now. The proportion of the rural population declined from 72.19% to 68.84%, which in turn tells that population in urban areas is increasing day by day. But the sad truth is, this mass level of the population depends on rural areas for the food source. “Urban agriculture: …

Urban Agriculture and Vertical Farming Technology in Agropolis
Abstract: The concept of Urban Agriculture dates back 1915; whereas the Vertical Farming is relatively a recent concept. With the alarming pace of globalization, industrialization and urbanization there is visibly a huge population flux in the major cities with meteoric rise of demand for healthy food to feed the teeming millions. This has prompted the scientists to evolve alternate farming approaches to fill-in the gaps. The recent innovations and technological breakthrough …

Agriculture Waste Management and Utilization
Abstract: Agricultural spends are non-item results of creation and handling of farming items that may contain material that can help man however whose monetary qualities are not exactly the expense of assortment, transportation, also handling for advantageous use. Evaluations of farming waste emerging are uncommon, yet they are for the most part considered as contributing a critical extent of the absolute waste matter in the created world. Agrarian turn of events …
