Sustainable Hydroponics Production Data

August 25, 2025 Grozine Contributor Comments Off

Despite the growing interest in sustainable agricultural practices, there is a notable knowledge gap in the comparative evaluation of hydroponic systems powered by PV solar energy versus those relying on conventional electricity, particularly when utilizing greywater as a primary water source. While hydroponics offers significant advantages in water and nutrient efficiency, the integration of renewable energy and unconventional water sources introduces complex dynamics that remain underexplored

Hydroponics Research Hyperspectral Analysis

April 30, 2025 Grozine Contributor Comments Off

Existing methods of observing plant roots are often limited by their inability to monitor the physiological information of root system under actual agricultural conditions. To address this limitation, we developed a novel method that enables nonlaboratory monitoring of the growth characteristics of crop root systems. This study explored the application of hyperspectral imaging technology to analyze the dynamic growth and aging of root systems throughout the cultivation period, specifically focusing on spinach
