Abstract

The review “Organic Hydroponics: The Future of Farming” offers a comprehensive analysis of the developing sphere of organic hydroponics, that integrates hydroponic technology with organic agriculture principles. The paper covers the ideas of hydroponics and organic farming while outlining their advantages and disadvantages in contemporary agriculture. It investigates how organic practices are aligned with hydroponic elements such as substrates, fertilizer solutions, pest and disease management. The paper explores ways to apply organic principles while taking into account economic factors, such as using organic sources of nutrients and bio-based pest control. In the study, organic and inorganic hydroponic systems are compared and discussed in terms of yield, quality, utilization of resources, and sustainability. Overall, the report emphasizes the potential advantages of combining hydroponic technology and organic farming methods, providing information for additional study and comprehension of sustainable crop production.

Keywords: Hydroponics, inorganic, organic, pest management, sustainability
