In the earlier days, agriculture was a term that was used to refer to productions of essential food crops. Now the term agriculture has a much broader contrast, production, processing, marketing, and distribution of livestock ? all under the single term: agriculture. Agriculture plays a vital role in the Indian economy. Over 70% of the rural household still depends on agriculture as their primary means of livelihood. Agriculture, along with fisheries and forestry, accounts for 1/3rd of the nation?s GDP and it is the single largest contributor. Agriculture provides not only food and raw material but also employment a majority of the labor force is most developing countries like India. Various problems are plaguing Indian agriculture. These problems directly or indirectly affect the life of a farmer. The farmers have to struggle hard to achieve sustained progress in irrigation. Mostly, farmers suffer from infrastructure and economics problems in their routine life. This is mainly due to lack of education and technical resources. Farmers are not acquainted with advanced agricultural practices. This holds them back from utilizing the proper technical resources in farming sectors and other methods. But there is a new generation of farmers who have educated themselves and break out of this cycle by testing farming techniques with more modern technologies beating the problems there are facing for centuries now.

What is Vertical Farming and how it?s done?

Vertical farming is the practice of growing produce in vertically stacked layers. This type of farming practice can use soil, hydroponic, or aeroponic growing methods. Vertical farms attempt to produce food in a challenging environment, like where arable land is rare or unviable. The technique helps mountainside towns, deserts, and urban cities grow different types of fruits and vegetables.

The vertical farming innovation works on a suspended tray configuration that is unique in itself. There is a platform made to store the water in the bucket posing as the storage tank, here. By the help of the platform, water will be collected in the bucket. This water will be used again for pouring water on the plants. The tray used above the water storage bucket is used for irrigation purposes. With the help of a pulley structure, waste from different levels of the plate is managed. On the other side of the pulley, structure ladder is being placed for farmers to accesses the tray on different levels as required.

Supporters of vertical farming praise the impact it can have now and in the future to increase food security and have a positive impact on health. It also reduces the farmland needed, which could decrease deforestation and pollution and help urban areas to be self-sufficient.
