Hydroponics has revolutionized food production, and arugula stands out in this system for its fast germination and high productivity. For those seeking efficient and sustainable cultivation, this leafy green is an excellent choice. With Hortivinyl’s systems, you ensure practicality, durability, and maximum yield.
Benefits of Hydroponics
Hydroponics is a cultivation technique that eliminates the need for soil, allowing plants to grow in balanced nutrient solutions. This method offers several advantages for producers focused on efficiency and sustainability:
Water savings
This technique recirculates water within the system, enabling up to 90% savings compared to traditional farming, reducing environmental impact and cutting production costs.
Higher yields in less space
Hydroponics maximizes space, allowing for greater production in smaller areas—ideal for controlled and urban environments.
Longer shelf life
Since the plants are sold with intact roots and well-nourished from cultivation, hydroponic vegetables last longer at the consumer’s home, maintaining freshness and quality for much longer.
Balanced nutrients
By providing nutrients in the exact amount needed, hydroponics ensures healthy, vigorous, and high-quality plants.
Reduced pesticide use
Hydroponics decreases the incidence of pests and diseases, reducing the need for pesticides and making production safer and more sustainable.
