Answer:
Although,
hydrophonics is a successful technique for plants still many crops are grown on
land because
(i) The cost is the
major concern. The setting and handling of hydrophonics requires much more
investment than that of the soil based production.
(ii) Sanitization
is extremely important especially with indoor hydroponic environments.
Water borne
disease can spread quickly through some methods of hydroponic production.
(iii) Hydroponics
is relatively a new technique and not used by the traditional farmers due to lack
of knowledge.
(iv) Plants are less
adaptable to the surrounding atmosphere. Hot weather and narrow oxygenation may
minimise the production and quality of plant produce/yield.
