Worldwide, we are experiencing rising food prices and widespread famine. Our current food production model is not sustainable. It contributes to pollution, deforestation, and consumes most of our fresh water supplies.
Hydroponics is the future of food production. The good news is that it's a technology that is accessible to everybody. You can easily create a hydroponic system in your backyard or even inside your home or apartment. You will be able to produce high-quality food at a fraction of the cost, if done correctly. This book is also perfect for those who want to get into small-scale greenhouse farming, such as rooftop- or urban farming.
This book will cover everything you will need to know about hydroponics, regardless of your level of expertise. Additionally, since we all have busy lives, this book will also explain how to automate virtually everything to minimise your involvement. You don't need a green thumb either, because you will learn everything you need to know to maintain your crop.
Start supplementing your family's food requirements or even start supplying fresh produce to your neighbourhood with your own hydroponic system.
