Hydroponics is an extremely sustainable and food-safe production method involving the maximum reuse of water and fertilisers and the reduction, and sometimes elimination, of the need for chemicals. Hydroponics is the production of crops in isolation from the soil, either with or without a medium, with their total water and nutrient requirements supplied by the system. Production takes place either in a greenhouse or outdoors.
