Why build a hydroponic grass factory? Is it good to grow hydroponic grass? Do cattle and sheep like to eat? When others start to build hydroponic grass factories, some people are still at the stage of understanding hydroponic grass. If you don’t know much about hydroponic grass, just read on.
First, let us first understand what hydroponic grass is. Hydroponic grass is grass grown using soilless cultivation methods. They can be produced at any time of the year, even during the colder months. For areas where there is a lack of grazing pasture and water sources, and where it is difficult to produce green feed throughout the year, growing hydroponic pasture is a very reliable option.
Why should we grow hydroponic grass? If we want to grow pasture, but there is no fertile soil suitable for pasture growth; or irrigation or water supply facilities are limited; especially in areas with higher labor costs, it is more expensive for dairy producers to produce green pasture feed; all of the above situations These are some of the problems faced by growing pasture, but there is no need to worry about these problems when growing hydroponic pasture.
So what is so special about hydroponic grass that deserves our attention?
1. The water utilization efficiency is improved and the water saving characteristics are obvious
Since the water is immediately transported to the base and is often recycled and reused, it can be said that the application of hydroponic pasture system Greatly reduces water waste.
2. The use of pesticides such as weeding and insecticide is reduced
Since hydroponic pasture is grown in a hydroponic manner without soil, it is not susceptible to the effects of chemicals in the soil. The impact of insects or diseases also reduces the use of pesticides such as insecticides.
3. Improved space utilization
Compared with traditional planting methods, hydroponic methods take up much less space and time, using a series of different levels of seedling racks internally Equipment such as three-dimensional planting can reduce the required area, thereby saving space.
4. High pasture yield
Hydroponic pasture can be harvested in a week to feed cattle and sheep. Production can be continued throughout the year and there will be no shortage of pasture supply.
Hydroponic grass has so many advantages, so how to grow it? Some people will purchase professional equipment for planting, such as planting racks, pallets, and containers. Some people will even build hydroponic grass factories. Large-scale production like factories also requires investment, but input and output are still proportional. You also need to be careful when building.
