Agricultural technology improves yield and efficiency in agriculture and aquaculture. Technology dates back thousands of years through various agricultural revolutions. Neolithic Revolution (10,000 years ago) transformed human societies from nomadic to agricultural
Aeroponics grows plants in air or mist without soil or aggregate medium. Plants are suspended with roots sprayed with nutrient-rich water solution. Canopy extends above, roots kept separated by support structures. Closed-cell foam or trellising used for plant support
Artificial nutrient bath for growing plants with 280% soil fertility. Requires 70 watts power to function, plants die without power. Constructed with 100 Steel, 1 Component, 2,800 ticks and skill 4. Cannot be re-installed, only deconstructed for half value
NASA built first vertical farm in decommissioned Mercury space capsule chamber. Agency pioneered nutrient film technique for soil-free hydroponic systems. Kennedy Space Center's Biomass Production Chamber provided critical data
Vertical farming grows crops on multi-level racks in controlled indoor environments. Yields can be 1,300% higher than in greenhouses. Produces 100% organic, pesticide-free food
Hydroponics grows strawberries without soil using inert media and nutrient solutions. System requires reservoir, pump, and growing media like coco coir. Water quality and pH must be maintained between 5.8 and 6.2
