Abstract

In the modern agriculture cultivation field, hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics technologies are currently playing an important role in growing vegetables, fruits, and crops without using soil. These have been used for high productivity, minimum usage of water resources, and compatibility of farming in every place. In this chapter, the authors cover the implementation procedures of hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics technologies in the real world; various inert and artificial mediums, possible types of plants; cultivating methods; technological advancements and application of the internet of things (IOT); and pros and cons for implementations. The various cultivation methods are compared to conventional methods (soil-based cultivation) based on their technology advancements, environmental impacts, yields, and costs.
