Abstract
The current global population is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, which will put immense pressure on the food production system to meet the growing demand. However, the traditional farming system alone is not sufficient to meet this demand due to various limitations such as limited land availability, environmental factors, and inefficient use of resources. As a result, there is a real need for adapting new farming systems that can help stimulate plant growth faster and more efficiently. One such technique is Hydroponics, which is a soil-less method of growing plants using mineral nutrient solutions in a water solvent. Hydroponics has been proven to be more efficient than traditional farming systems, as it allows for higher crop yields in less time and with fewer resources. Therefore, creating awareness about this new farming technique and providing farmers with the necessary resources and support to implement it on their farms can help address the food production challenges. In addition to the farming technique, farmers are also facing issues related to intermediaries, who take a cut of their profits, resulting in losses for the farmers. To address this problem, a platform is being created to enable direct interaction between farmers and buyers By implementing this solution, farmers can increase their income, improve their standard of living, and contribute to the development of a sustainable and efficient food production system.
