Thesis Abstract
Hydroponics is a soilless cultivation technique that has gained significant attention in recent years due to its potential to revolutionize traditional agriculture. This abstract provides an overview of hydroponics and explores its applications in the field of Agric and Bioresources Engineering. It discusses the principles of hydroponics, the advantages it offers over conventional farming methods, and the various types of hydroponic systems commonly used. Furthermore, it highlights the potential of hydroponics in addressing key challenges faced by traditional agriculture, such as water scarcity, limited arable land, and climate change. The abstract concludes by emphasizing the need for further research and development in hydroponics to optimize its efficiency, sustainability, and scalability for widespread adoption in agricultural practices
