3. WHAT IS AEROPONIC FARMING? Aeroponic farming is revolutionizing the way we grow food, offering numerous benefits over traditional agriculture. Soil-less Cultivation Nutrient-Rich Mist Water Conservation Land Efficiency Example :

4. Types of aeroponics system Low -pressure Units  Plant roots are hung above a reservoir.   A low-pressure pump delivers the nutrient solution through jets or ultrasonic transducers, which drip or drain the nutrients back into the reservoir. These units are typically ideal for growing on a benchtop. It is also used to demonstrate the concepts of aeroponics. High -pressure Devices Mist is produced by a high-pressure pump in high-pressure aeroponic devices (s). It is also often employed in the production of high-value crops.  Air and water purification, nutrient sterilization, low-mass polymers, and pressured nutrient delivery systems are all part of this approach. Commercial system The commercial system includes high-pressure device hardware as well as biological systems.  The biological systems matrix includes an improvement for longer plant life and crop maturity.

5. How aeroponic system works ? Plants are suspended in an air filled chamber. 2. A nutrient-rich mist is sprayed at timed intervals to nourish the roots. 3. High pressure pumps creates a fine mist, ensuring optimal absorption by the roots. 4. The system recycles water and nutrients, minimizing waste.

8. Role of LED Grow Lights in Indoor Aeroponics LED Grow Lights are a critical component of an Indoor Aeroponic System, as they replicate natural sunlight indoors. These lights emit the specific wavelengths (red and blue) needed for various stages of plant growth. Benefits of Using LED Grow Lights 1.Energy Efficiency: LED lights consume less power compared to traditional lighting systems, reducing operational costs. 2.Customizable Light Spectrum: Allows tailoring of the light spectrum for different plant growth stages, such as germination, vegetative, and flowering phases. 3.Low Heat Output: Prevents overheating, which could harm delicate plants in confined indoor setups. 4.Durability: Long-lasting and reliable for continuous operation. 5.Space Optimization: Compact design fits seamlessly into vertical farming structures like Aeroponic Tower Farms.z

15. Case studies and success stories How it started Frederick Gericke, a researcher at the University of California, developed aeroponic farming in 1920. Dutch scientist Frits Warmolt Went began growing crops like coffee and tomatoes using aeroponics in 1957. Richard J. Stoner was the first American to use aeroponics commercially in his greenhouse. He was awarded a patent for his aeroponic growing system in 1985. How it's used today NASA began using aeroponics in the late 1990s to grow food for astronauts in space. Aeroponics is becoming more popular in places where traditional farming isn't an option.

16. The country where Aeroponic farming is adopted:

17. Promising Innovations Smart Aeroponic Systems:  Integration of IoT and AI for precision farming. Compact Indoor Systems:  Affordable Indoor Aeroponic Gardens for urban households. Community Farming:  Aeroponic systems in community spaces to promote local food production.

18. Role of AI and IOT techniques in A.F Role of AI Plant Health Monitoring Growth Optimization Automated Inspection Nutrient Management Role of IOT Sensor networks monitor temperature, humidity, pH, and other crucial environmental parameters. Automated control systems manage misting frequency, light intensity, and nutrient distribution. Data is collected and analyzed to optimize system performance and identify areas for improvement. Remote monitoring and management capabilities allow farmers to monitor their crops from anywhere.

19. Key AI and IoT Technologies in Use Automated dispensing Smart Sensors Led Grow Lights Machine Vision Systems Cloud-Based Analytics

20. Conclusion : The Smart Farming Revolution AI and IoT are transforming the agricultural landscape, offering innovative solutions for aeroponic farming. By embracing these technologies, we can unlock new possibilities for sustainable and efficient food production, addressing global food security challenges and paving the way for a more sustainable future.
