Sustainability in 3rd world agriculture
"James Curts" wrote in message et... . We use hydroponic systems in the disadvantaged areas because they are simple to set up, use relatively little water, produce much quicker and several times more volume than dirt farming. Also orientation is surprisingly simplified because there are no machines to operate and service and very few people are required to maintain a system keeping the training process to a minimum. I give hydroponics high marks for being in the forefront of the food producing industry as we move more rapidly into a world in which food is a cost and availability issue for everyone. Hydroponics will be the life saver of many in 3rd world nations as help becomes more available and accepted. Thank you how does the capital cost of starting up a Hydroponics system compare with a more conventional system? Jim Webster James Curts |
