Childhood best friends muniruand ambali are teaching farmers a technique that may sound like the stuff of science fiction — growing crops without the use of soil and making a tidy sum out of it. After a series of boring jobs and failed businesses the 26-year old college of agric,mokwa niger states tried to rear pigs early last year but the venture proved too expensive for the fresh graduates. “We just wanted to keep a few pigs and see how it goes,” says' ambali“but our biggest problem was the cost of feeding them. That was when my best friend Sam suggested that we grow our own fodder using a rare technology known as hydroponics”. Hydroponics is the process of growing crops without the use of soil. The technique avoids soil to speed up growth while avoiding plant diseases. “What grows normally on soil for 21 days can take only six days if grown using the hydroponics technology,” says Mbugua. You can grow pretty much anything using this soil-less method, but ambali decided to grow livestock fodder because it not only saves space and time, but it is also cost-effective in production process 3 Likes
