Author : John Robins Bentham, Dr. Kapil Kumar and Kshitij Kumar

Abstract

Modern agriculture faces numerous challenges, including soil degradation, water scarcity, and the need for sustainable practices to ensure global food security. To address these issues, innovative agricultural techniques such as aquaponics, hydroponics, and aeroponics have been developed. This paper explores the integration of these systems, examining their principles, advantages, disadvantages, and potential for creating sustainable farming practices. Through a comprehensive literature review, comparative analysis, and case studies, we aim to highlight the synergies and challenges of integrating aquaponics, hydroponics, and aeroponics, and propose solutions for effective implementation.

Horticulture, which is the science of growing fruits, vegetables, flowers, and ornamental plants, has seen tremendous advancements in recent years as a result of technological advancements, scientific research, and changing consumer demands। This review article provides a comprehensive overview of the most recent advancements in horticulture. It covers a variety of topics, including breeding methods, cultivation techniques, pest and disease control, and post-harvest technologies। Beginning with a look at the most recent trends in plant breeding, the review covers the development of high-yielding, disease-resistant varieties with improved nutritional profiles and improved agronomic traits। It also talks about the rise of precision horticulture, which uses advanced technologies like drones, remote sensing, and data analytics to increase productivity and optimize resource use.
