By 2050, the world’s population is expected to grow by another 2 billion people, and feeding it will be a major challenge. Due to industrial development and urbanization, we are losing arable land every day. Scientists say that the Earth has lost one-third of its arable land in the last 40 years.
We do not know how much more we are going to lose in the next 40 years. Increasing food demand is one of the biggest challenges facing us due to increasing arable land with an increasing population. Many believe that standing farming can be the answer to this challenge. Is vertical farming the future of agriculture? let’s find out!
What is vertical farming?
Vertical farming is the practice of preparing food on steep inclined surfaces. Instead of keeping vegetables and other foods at the same level, such as in a farm or greenhouse, this method produces foods in vertically stacked layers that are typically used in a skyscraper, shipping container, or other such as a renovated warehouse. Are integrated into structures.
This modern idea uses indoor farming techniques, using controlled environmental agriculture (CEA) technology. Artificial control of temperature, light, humidity and gases make food and medicine indoor possible. In many ways, vertical farming is similar to a greenhouse where metal reflectors and artificial light enhance natural sunlight. The primary goal of vertical farming is to maximize crop production in limited space.
How vertical farming works
There are four important areas in understanding how vertical farming works: 1. Physical layout, 2. Lighting, 3. Growing medium, and 4. Sustainability features.
First, the primary goal of vertical farming is to produce more food items per square meter. To accomplish this goal, crops are cultivated in steep layers in a tower life structure. Secondly, an ideal combination of natural and artificial lights is used to maintain the correct light level in the room. Techniques such as rotating beds are used to improve light efficiency.
Third, instead of clay, aeroponic, aquaponic, or hydroponic mounting mediums are used. Peat moss or coconut husk and similar non-soil mediums are very common in standing farming. Finally, the vertical farming method uses various stability features to offset the energy costs of farming. In fact, vertical farming uses 95 percent less water.
Advantages and disadvantages of vertical farming
Vertical farming holds promise and sounds like a future farm. However, vertical farming has some stumbles to consider before moving at full speed.
