The pollutants are also negligible in this production without soil and in a highly controlled environment.

This burden is significant for the country’s foreign exchange reserves. The pleasant aspect of hydroponic technology is that due to this, imported varieties of fruits and vegetables can be produced in the country at a low cost. Due to this, where the import burden decreases, the consumers also get the product they choose at a lower price.
