Planting vegetables without soil

Growing vegetables without soil is the subject of science and technology at the state level KC.07.20 by Associate Professor, Dr. Ho Huu An and colleagues in the field of fruits and vegetables, Agricultural University of Agriculture I Hanoi.

After 5 years of research and technological equipment suitable for production of safe vegetables, the type of industry is high productivity, high quality, meet 4 conditions to ensure food safety, Nitrates in vegetables are below standard levels, free from harmful microorganisms.

The net house system is built on solid steel frames, covered with insect-resistant netting, avoiding weather factors affecting the development of the crop. This model of technology at all stages from the beginning of sowing to planting is carried out on the substrates, using more than 10 micronutrients as fertilizer to irrigate the plants in liquid form and drip.

The advantage of this technology is that the crop promotes the potential of productivity and seed quality, limited pest and disease management, seasonal cropping, especially off-season vegetables and fruits and limited risks. Utilization of land is not able to cultivate but still produce high quality products.

At Techmart Vietnam 2005, the author has signed many technology transfer contracts for units and individuals with a total value of more than 10 billion.
