Soilless cultivation

Soilless cultivation is a new crop cultivation technology developed in recent decades. Crops are not cultivated in the soil, but in mineral soluble aqueous solution (nutrient solution); or crop cultivation with nutrient solution in a certain cultivation substrate. As long as there are certain cultivation equipment and management measures, crops can grow normally and obtain high yield. It is called soilless cultivation because it does not use natural soil but irrigates crops with nutrient solution.

The characteristic of soilless cultivation is to replace the soil environment with the artificially created crop root growth environment. It can not only meet the needs of crops for nutrients, water, air and other conditions, but also control and adjust these conditions, so as to promote the better growth of crops and obtain better nutritional growth and reproductive growth balance. Therefore, soilless crops usually grow well, have high yield and high quality.

Soilless cultivation breaks away from the limitation of soil and greatly expands the space of agricultural production, so that crops can be produced in barren land, and the development prospect is very broad. At present, almost all plant factories adopt soilless cultivation mode. flowers and plants.
