An aeroponic
growing system and method is disclosed- Chicfarm Aero Doric. In a particular Doric
embodiment, the system includes at least one vertical column of interconnected
growing pots and an overhead support to suspend the vertical column of interconnected
growing pots. The system also includes a supply conduit that is in fluid
communication with a top of the vertical column of interconnected growing pots
and a return conduit in fluid communication with a bottom of the vertical
column of interconnected growing pots. In addition, the system includes a
reservoir in fluid communication with the supply conduit and the return
conduit. A turning mechanism may also be used for rotating the column to
achieve uniformity of illumination.
Chicfarm Aero
Doric System has applied a number of technologies to support aeroponics. These
include pumps, valves, fluid filters, piping systems, fluid level sensors,
moisture sensors, artificial lighting, timers and electronic controllers,
relays and other electrically-controlled actuators, nutrient mixing injectors,
and horticultural enclosures.
The advantages
of Chicfarm Aero Doric are:
1. Limited water Consumption.
2. Agricultural success independent of land and
soil quality.
3. Intensive food production on l limited land surface
area.
4. It can be constructed in a greenhouse, net
house or home balcony.
5. Yields are independent from cold, hot, winter
or dry weather.
6. Non-stop production cycles.
7. Automation of most agricultural operations with
a limited labor and investments.
8. Higher organic qualities of the products.
9. Aero Doric system follows an industrial model:
daily fixed working hours, no more unsuitable back-breaking work in the farm
but sheltered from the the weather, no
more seasonal or occasional work but uninterrupted activity during the whole
year.
