The difference between DFT hydroponics and traditional soil cultivation

High yield: DFT hydroponics directly provides nutrients and water to the plant roots through nutrient solution, making the nutrient supply more sufficient and rapid, thereby increasing yield.

Good quality: Due to the balanced nutrient supply and the ability to accurately control it according to plant species and growth stage, hydroponic vegetables have a better taste and better internal quality.

Easy to automate management: Hydroponic facilities can realize the automated management of the production process and accurately control the nutrient level through automatic control equipment.

Simple facility and equipment management: Hydroponic facilities and equipment are relatively simple, easy to manage, and durable.

Safe and delicious: Hydroponic vegetables are pollution-free, do not use pesticides and synthetic fertilizers, and are healthier.

Stable root environment: The nutrient solution layer in the DFT hydroponic system is deep, providing a stable growth environment for the roots.

Labor-saving "floating" hydroponics: In the DFT hydroponic system, vegetables are mostly grown in planting carriers such as foam floating boards, which is easy to manage and improve production efficiency.

Suitable for automated operation: DFT hydroponic planting can achieve fully automated production and improve productivity.

Fast production speed: Due to the rich nutrition and sufficient oxygen, the growth rate of vegetables in the DFT hydroponic system is earlier than that of soil planting.

Large initial investment: The DFT hydroponic system requires the construction of a nutrient solution pool, a fluid circulation system, etc., and the initial investment is relatively high.

High load due to large nutrient solution volume: Due to the deep liquid layer, a single vegetable occupies a large amount of liquid, which may cause the system to have a high load.

Difficult to achieve three-dimensional cultivation: Compared with some hydroponic systems, DFT hydroponics may not be suitable for three-dimensional cultivation.

High technical requirements: Hydroponics requires professional knowledge and technical equipment to maintain the operation of the system, and has certain requirements on the technical level of the operator.

Environmental sensitivity: The hydroponic system is very sensitive to environmental factors such as water quality, temperature and light, and requires precise control.
