What is vertical farming?

Vertical Farming is Combination of high rise buildings and greenhouse along with complete controlled environment system in farming practices; This vertical farming technology is used to grow crops by artificial sunlight or by direct sunlight process. The greenhouse effect is detrimental to the terrestrial environment, therefore this system partially reduces the greenhouse effect and is naturally composed, most vertical farms are not built with the ecological aspect. But this vertical farming has the minimum of glass which can pass the oxygen to the outside layer of agricultural areas. Different types of water and management system are followed in the vertical farming system. The resources used in this farming system vertical where the wind turbine is used to generate electricity for pumping system water energy to generate artificial light source for high yield crops Vertical farming requires water harvesting, hydroponic technique, a type of degraded glass and an architectural structure suitable for vertical farming in the way of potentially AGRICULTURAL ARCHITECTURE: The architecture of vertical farming is divided into several sections called hydroponics, cultivation method and harvesting methods, etc. Solar radiation must pass over all vegetable crops for healthy growth. Renewable Resources: The vertical farming system is designed for future purposes where sources such as electricity, low water availability may or may not occur in the days to come. Therefore, to cope with such situations, the system involved in the process of renewable resources, where the wind turbine can be used to generate electricity for the process of pumping water to power crops, and l solar energy is also added to generate electricity. Production of artificial light for crops. Harvesting process: The harvesting process is also known as the water management process, so that the water is treated specifically in the vertical agricultural structure. In which some methods such as the rainwater harvesting method will be discussed, this method explains that the water collected for the rain has passed through the pipes too much to the crops, thus obtaining rainwater. By an indirect process will obtain a healthy water and natural yield, these activities are carried out through the hydroponic system, it is indicated that the nutrient content will pass over the crops through pipes, while the water to the crops s' continuously flowing, the mineral must also be added to the water with excellence because the crops are planted with the soil with the pipe fitting this pipe fitting will require the injector to take the force of the water and consists of a production sufficient And a filter also available in the hydroponic system to remove waste in the water and is built with the mixture as the minerals are stored in each separate storage Once the insecticide is needed the minerals can also be mixed with water. Water to protect the crop from insects which completely destroy the crops. Hydroponics is therefore practiced using multiple cultivation methods.
