Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) - An Advanced Hydroponic Production System

  • Specifications:

 

  • Modular: Yes
  • Closed System: Yes
  • Automated: Yes
  • Food Safe: Yes

Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) is a growing system used for production of different crops, especially leafy crops and strawberries.The system is based on the recirculation of the nutrient solution and the absence of substrates.

NFT significantly decreases the use of water, fertilizers and pesticides while it increases the production per unit area and enhances in product quality and uniformity.

The outcomes of the NFT moves farming to the highest standards of efficiency, yielding and sustainability.

Our system is modular and scalable, depending on the investor's needs and land restrictions.
