About this document
Vertical Farming: Sustainable Urban Agriculture by Yusrina Afifa is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Vertical farming is an agricultural technique that grows crops vertically on inclined surfaces or in stacked layers, optimizing space. It aims to promote sustainable practices over conventional farming by using less water, fertilizer and chemicals. Vertical farming controls temperature, humidity and other variables to increase production year-round in indoor environments. While it has benefits like conserving land and resources, vertical farming also faces challenges such as high energy use and costs.
