Urban Farming Software
Urban farms are high-tech farms that typically are setup in buildings in urban areas. Produce is grown in stacks in many cases with no soil or sunlight. These farms utilize artificial lighting, climate control and in many cases hydroponics. Hydroponics involves suspending plants in a medium such as gravel, wool or perlite (a form of volcanic glass). The roots are immersed in a solution of nutrient-rich water. The nutrients and water that are not consumed by the roots can be recycled, rather than being lost into the soil. A constant flow of air is maintained to supply carbon dioxide to the plants. It is now possible to tailor the temperature, humidity, lighting, airflow and nutrient conditions to get the best productivity out of plants year round; anywhere in the world. The technology of hydroponics allows almost any kind of plant to be grown in nutrient-rich water, from root crops like radishes and potatoes to fruit such as melons and even cereals like maize.
