Indoor Farming

Indoor farming, also known as indoor agriculture, is the practice of growing plants, fruits, and vegetables in controlled environments within structures such as warehouses, greenhouses, or specially designed facilities. This method utilizes artificial lighting, climate control, and often hydroponic or aeroponic systems to create optimal growing conditions for crops, independent of outdoor weather conditions. Indoor farming allows for year-round production, increased crop yields, and the ability to grow in urban areas where traditional farming may be impractical. It aims to enhance sustainability by reducing the need for pesticides and fertilizers, as well as minimizing water usage and transportation costs associated with food distribution. The approach is gaining popularity due to its potential to address food security challenges and its ability to produce fresh produce closer to consumers.
