LA HIDROPONÍA COMO PROYECTOS EMPRENDEDORES DE TECNOLOGÍA APLICADA PARA DAR SUSTENTABILIDAD A LA AGRICULTURA URBANA

Urban Farm DB summary

This study aimed to propose sustainability in urban agriculture through the use of hydroponic technology for agricultural production. Through documentary research and expert interviews, diagnostic criteria and sustainability indicators were determined, making hydroponics an option for producing food in reduced spaces. The results indicate that urban agriculture, due to its spatial scope, has limited possibilities for scaling up to the formal market, but can respond to family self-consumption needs and improve nutritional and higher quality foods.
