Vegetables grown in soil-less media using hydroponic technology is the one stop solution to produce high quality and safe food. It uses less than 1/10th – 1/5th of the water used in soil cultivation. With urbanization, industrialization, increasing biotic and abiotic pressures and chemical agriculture, our soil, water and air are being polluted. The food we eat, water we drink, and air we breathe is not clean. The vegetables and fruits we buy and consume are being transported from long distances and hence are not fresh when they finally arrive at our doorstep. The vegetables that we consume could have been cultivated in soils contaminated with heavy metals, harmful human pathogens and residual pesticides, which have been sprayed many times even before harvesting them. Hydroponic production system developed by Saveer for tomato, cucumber, capsicum, lettuce, strawberry, basil, mint and other leafy vegetable is the best fit for commercial urban agriculture.
