Eco Project class 12 on Vertical Farming.

Class 12, cbse, project on Vertical Farming for economics.
Thought why not help other students. Cause I didn't find any proper samples when I started on my projects.
It is a simple project which meets page criteria. A guide of sorts.
It has the Introduction, Acknowledgement and all other necessary parts.
The pictures are lacking but that is not really a problem :)
