Soilless Cultivation Systems: Principles, Technologies and Sustainable Applications provides an overview of innovative farming technologies developed to address food security, climate change, water scarcity, urbanisation, and declining agricultural land. The book examines the principles and applications of hydroponics, aeroponics, aquaponics, and vertical farming for efficient crop production under controlled environments. It covers nutrient management, growing media, crop physiology, environmental control, and resource-use efficiency. Emerging technologies such as automation, sensors, robotics, artificial intelligence, and precision agriculture are highlighted for their role in improving productivity and sustainability. The book also discusses climate resilience, sustainability assessment, and future developments in controlled-environment agriculture. Integrating recent research and technological advances, it serves as a valuable resource for students, researchers, agricultural professionals, and policymakers interested in sustainable and smart agricultural production systems.
