Hydroponics is an unconventional growing technique. It is the cultivation of plants in water. The idea of hydrophonics comes from assumption that plants do not need soil. They need only the nutrients and moisture in the soil, and these can be supplied through gravel beds that contain water.

solution which are still used today. About generation ago, hydrophonics moved out of the research laboratory into commercial use. In 1936 a California physiologist, W.F Gerick, published a guidelines for hydrophonics agriculture.
One of the leading companies in the field of Hydrophonics is Hydrophonich Incorporated of Glendele, Arizona. It produces more than 2,7 million kilogram of fruit and vegetables each year mostly tomatoes, but also cucumbers, lettuces and melons. Crop yield are excellent for example each nature tomato plant produces an average of 12,1 kilos of fruit a year of two growing cycles. These companies with about 9 kilos for two crops of the average soil grown plant.
Everything is carefully controlled in the green house; the temperature, the humidity, and the air circulation, wind, hail, frost, drought, weeds, and insects are all excluded.
In recent years, hydrophonics farming has been expanding in many parts of the world. A hydrophonics farm operated by the government of Kuwait produces fresh tomatoes at a desert site near the capital city. At Puerto Penasco, Mexico, and Sadiyat Island Abu Dhabi, experimental hydrophonics farms use sea water that is desalinated by special installment located on the coast.
