As the population of the world increases consequently demand of food is also increased day by day. To fulfill the need of food, we have to adopt new technologies in our farming system to get more yield in short period of time without having any kind of loss due to climatic condition. Hydroponic system is that kind of modern approach of smart farming.

What is Hydroponics System:
Soil less cultivation of crops is called as hydroponics system. In this system liquid nutrient mixture is used instead of soil. Nowadays it is a growing technology of modern Agriculture.
Types of Hydroponics System:
A. Standing aerated nutrient solution /Deep water culture system (DWC)
B. Nutrient film technique (NFT)
Benefits of Hydroponics System:
- As there is no soil, so there is no chances of any soil borne disease infection.
- Water requirement is very low compared to traditional method.
- Higher productivity than traditional method.
- As crops are grown in controlled climate, so there is no attack of any pest or disease.
- Through hydroponics system year round cultivation of off season crops is possible.
- There is no wastage of nutrient in case of hydroponics.
