Abstract:
The development of hydroponic suitable methods is currently quite good, the utilization of the narrow land availability and the people's attractiveness to hydroponics are the reasons for the developing hydroponic suitable method. However, in its development, there is less land with soil growing media, there is a pattern of farming using water media, namely hydroponics (Hydroponics). Hydroponic cultivation must pay attention to the elements that plants need, such as providing special nutrition to plants. The provision of nutrition that is done manually often results in irregular nutrition in hydroponics which results in disruption of hydroponic plant growth and harvest is not optimal. Research on the Smart Hydroponics System based on the Raspberry Pi 3 using the tidal hydroponic system can make it easier for every human being who wants to grow crops especially who are busy with work activities.

Abstract:
Background: The leaves of peppermint and the essential oil received from them are used in medicine. The chemical content of essential oil is quite complex. It contains about 30 terpene compounds. The content of essential oil in flowers is 4-6%; in leaves – 2.4-2.8%, and in stems 0.3%. The main components that define the quality of essential oils are menthol, menthone, limonene, menthofuran, and isomenthone. Peppermint is used in the form of tea, tincture, extract, and salves. It has a regulating influence on the heart and circulatory system. It calms the heartbeat and supports the decrease of blood pressure, and the oil stream is used for dyspnea in the form of inhalation. Plant cream is used against insect bites, eczema, hemorrhoids, muscle pains, and some chronic diseases.Context and purpose of this study: The work aimed to study the content of the main components from the quality indicators of the essential oil of peppermint grown in different water-stream and classical hydroponic systems for the first time in Armenia.Results: From the analyses, it was revealed that the strengthening of the essential oil of peppermint grown in different systems of the water-stream hydroponics (cylindrical, gully, continuous) and classical hydroponics was observed in August. At the same time, high-yield plants of cylindrical and classical hydroponic systems exceeded other variants by 1.3-1.5 times with the essential oil output. In hydroponic systems, the specificities of the physical-chemical indices of peppermint essential oil were also studied. In August, the refractive indicator of essential oil increased to some extent in all variants, except for continuous hydroponics. The lack of increase in continuous hydroponics can likely be explained by the change in the ratio of essential oil to different compounds. At the end of vegetation, in September, some increase of essential oils' specific gravity was observed in the gully (2.1-3.5%) and continuous (4.5-4.7%) modules, while in cylindrical and classical hydroponics the change was minor. During vegetation, the essential oil of plant leaves was subject to not only quantitative but also qualitative changes. The cylindrical system exceeded other water-stream hydroponics variants with the main essential oil menthol component by 1.1-1.4 times and classical hydroponics by 1.1 times. The Gully system exceeded other water-stream systems with the content of D-Limonene and Menthyl acetate 3.6-9.7 and 1.3-3.0 times, respectively. And classical hydroponics 1.4 and 1.7 times, respectively. In the continuous system, the content of Isomentone, Pulegone, and Mint furanone was 1.3-2.0, 3.3-3.5, and 5.7-6.2 times higher, respectively, compared with the other water-stream hydroponic systems, and 1.6, 2.6, and 1.7 times, compared with classical hydroponics. Classical hydroponics exceeded all variants of water-stream hydroponics in the content of Piperidone by 3.3-4.1 times.Conclusion:Although the strengthening of essential oil biosynthesis was observed in all hydroponic variants in August, the cylindrical hydroponic system excelled in the content of essential oils, the most important qualitative indicator of menthol. High output of essential oil in plant raw material was observed in classical hydroponics and cylindrical system of water-stream hydroponics, which provides optimal regimen for the normal growth and development of plants.Keywords: cylindrical, medicinal plant, bioactive compounds, menthol

Abstract:
Hydroponics is a method of cultivating plants without the use of soil. Soil acts as a growth medium which gives plants stability, provides nutrients and allows roots to be kept wet without drowning. In hydroponics the soil’s functions are replaced by synthesized methods. Stability comes from a substrate (i.e. LECA, rockwool perlite).The 16 essential nutrients are solved in water which are distributed to plants’ roots by different techniques. To generate photosynthesis natural light is replaced by artificial light, especially red light in the proximity of 660 nm. Hydroponics has been used as a cultivation method for at least 2000 years. During the 20th century industrial applications became common since plastics allowed for complex systems engineering. The method also makes it possible to grow the same amount of crops with approximately 10% water usage and 25% of the area compared to conventional cultivation. During the past few years systems for home use has emerged but the product genre is still in its cradle. This master thesis covers a new conceptual design of a hydroponic home system. The project was carried out at Omecon AB in Stockholm as a consulting design project. Omecon AB is an engineering consultant agency within mostly mechanical construction looking to widen the competence base. Using a design process based on Human-Centered Design the project involved the stakeholders users, extreme users, Omecon AB, plant experts, electronics engineering and service as well as plastics design engineering. Additional/supplemental economical–, ecological– and social sustainability aspects has been considered during all phases of the process. By using the Human-Centered Design process the problem range is expanded from its initial state which results in a more complete end result. Common methodology altered with some unorthodox twists has been utilized throughout the project. The final result is a conceptual hydroponic system for home environment which is designed as an interior design product as well as a high-performance cultivation system. By using natural materials such as wood and steel the users expands its life span and thus mitigates the negative environmental impact. Another aspect which prolongs the products life span is the modular usage which lets users vary and choose their preferred settings. All manufactured materials included in the final concept were flow resources and the parts were engineered to be easily separable for future replacement and recycling. A new type of pot was invented along with a new way of adjusting the height-wise position of lamps. The aeroponic technique, which was applied to this concept, is generally considered to generate the largest plants and thus comprises higher performance compared to other home systems. The use of substrate was also eliminated which decreases continous material consumption within hydroponics.
Hydroponik är en metod för att odla växter utan jord. Jord i odling agerar som ett växtmedium som ger plantor stabilitet, tillför näringsämnen och tillåter rötter att vara i väta utan att dränka dem. I hydroponik ersätts jordens funktioner med syntetiska metoder. Stabilitet ges av ett substrat (t.ex. LECA-kulor, stenull eller perlit). De 16 essentiella näringsämnena löses i vatten och distribueras till plantors rötter med hjälp av olika tekniker. For att skapa fotosyntes ersätts naturligt ljus med artificiellt ljus. Speciellt rött ljus i närheten av 660 nm. Hydroponik har använts som odlingsmetod i åtminstånde 2000 år. Under 1900-talet blev industiella applikationer vanliga eftersom plast möjliggjorde tillverkling av komplexa system. Metoden tillåter även att odla samma mängd grödor med 10% av vattenmängden och 25% av ytan jämfört med konventionell odling. Under de senaste åren har system avsedda för användning hemma blivit vanligare men produktgenren är fortfarande ung. Det här examensarbetet täcker en ny konceptuell design av ett hydroponiskt system för hemmabruk. Projektet utfördes på Omecon AB i Stockholm som ett konsultarbete inom design. Omecon AB är en konsultfirma som mestadels är verksamma inom mekanikkonstruktion men de vill vidga sin kompetens. Genom användning av en designprocess som har baserats på Human-Centered Design har projektet involverat intressenterna användare, extrema användare, Omecon AB, växtexperter, en elektronikingenjör samt plastkonstruktion. Vidare har aspekter inom ekonomisk–, ekologisk– och social hållbarhet beaktats genom alla faser av processen. Via användning av Human-Centered Design-processen har problemrummet expanderats från den initiala utgångspunkten vilket resulterar i ett mer komplett slutresultat. Vanlig metodik varvat med okonventionella anpassningar har använts genom projektet. Slutresultatet består av ett konceptuellt hydroponiskt system för hemmabruk som är designat som en inredningsprodukt samt ett odlingssystem med hög prestanda. Genom användning av naturliga material som trä och stål förlänger användarna produktens livslängd och på så sätt förmildras den negativa klimatpåverkan. En annan aspekt som förlänger produktens livslängd är moduläriteten som låter användare variera och välja deras föredragna inställningar. Alla tillverkade material inkluderade i slutkonceptet var flödesresurser och delarna konstruerades så att de går lätt att separera för framtida ersättning och återvinning. En ny typ av kruka uppfanns tillsammans med ett nytt sätt att justera höjden av lamporna. Den aeroponiska tekniken, som används is konceptet, är allmänt ansedd att generera de största plantorna och innefattar därför högre prestanda jämfört med andra hydroponiska hemmasystem. Användning av substrat eliminerades också vilket minskar kontinuerlig materialkonsumption inom hydroponik.

Abstract:
Research in the field of hydroponics from the second half of 20th century and 21st century described how the components of hydroponic systems are related to each other and established a basis for construction and operation of complex and reliable systems of hydroponic agriculture. These systems are predominantly constructed as means for mass production in agriculture or are built by individuals to be used in their garden or greenhouse. The role of design in production of these devices is rather limited. The goal of this work is to introduce hydroponics as a complex system of many interconnected parameters and to assess hydroponic systems from the perspective of design. The objective is to design such a solution that would incorporate all the elements that make up a hydroponic system and design itself. This design ought to respect not only the need to provide a suitable environment for plant growth but also the need of efficiency, ergonomics and design.

Abstract:
Projektet gick ut på att skapa ett system för att automatisera en hydroponisk odling, ta fram vilka storheter som är intressanta att mäta och sedan skapa elektronik för det. Det var snabbt tydligt att det är elektrisk konduktivitet (EC), pH och temperatur som är intressant att mäta. EC är ett estimat över näringsinnehållet i vattnet, pH i vattnet måste vara i rätt nivå för att växterna ska kunna ta upp näringen och temperaturen måste vara inom rätt område för att växterna ska växa. Sensorerna som valdes fungerar väldigt olika och därför skapades olika kretsar för vardera sensor. EC och temperatursensorn fick även två olika kretsar för att kunna utvärdera vilken metod som har fungerat bäst. Kretsarna skapades i en simulator och när de gav önskvärt beteende konstruerades ett PCB utifrån simuleringsritningarna. En mikrokontroller användes för att styra kretsarna och hantera mätdata för att sedan skicka det vidare till en Raspberry Pi för att skriva ut värden på en skärm. Resultaten som kretsarna gav i slutändan är tillfredställande och mycket väl inom noggrannheten som en hydroponisk odling kräver.
The project was to create a system for automating hydroponic cultivation, identifying the quantities that are relevant to measure and then creating electronics for it. It quickly became clear that it is electrical conductivity (EC), pH and temperature that are relevant to measure. EC is an estimate of the nutrient content of the water, the pH of the water must be at the right level for the plants to absorb the nutrients and the temperature must be within a certain range for the plants to grow. The sensors selected work very differently and therefore different circuits were designed for each sensor. The EC and the temperature sensor were also given two different circuits in order to evaluate which method was best suited. The circuits were designed in a simulator and when they provided desirable behaviour, a PCB was designed based on the simulation schematics. A microcontroller was used to control the circuits and manage the measurement data and then pass it on to a Raspberry Pi in order to display values ​​on a screen. The results that the circuits ultimately gave are satisfactory and very well within the accuracy required by hydroponic cultivation.

The purpose of this project is to create a fully automatedgreenhouse that can produce year-round crops, using sensorsand actuators. Temperature in both water and air,relative humidity, water level, nutrient level and pH are allmeasured with different sensors. Though only water level,pH and nutrients will be regulated. The greenhouse will berelying on a hydroponic growing technique, meaning thatthe growing is soil-less and will be done in water. Thismakes measuring and controlling said levels easier and alsominimizes water waste and makes for a more environmentalsystem. The main focus of this project is on regulating pHand nutrient levels of the water. The system has shown tobe stable and self regulating within the desired intervals fornutrient concentration and pH for growing basil.
Syftet med det här projektet är att skapa ett automatiserat växthus som kan producera grödor året runt med hjälp av sensorer och aktuatorer. Med olika sensorer mäts temperaturen i både vattnet och luften, relativa luftfuktigheten, vattennivå, pH- och näringsvärden. Dock kommer endast vattennivå, pH- och näringsvärden regleras. Växthuset använder sig av så kallad hydroponisk odling, vilket innebär att odlingen inte sker i jord utan i vatten. Detta underlättar bland annat mätningar och kontrollering av systemet men minimerar även vattenkonsumptionen och bidrar till ett mera miljövänligt system. Projektet kommer i huvudsak inrikta sig på reglering av pH och näringsnivåer av vattnet. Systemet har visats stabilt och har förmågan att reglera sig självt inom önskat intervall för näringskoncentration och pH för att odla basilika.

Abstract:
As human population increases, the need for water increases in domestic, agricultural, industrial and urban sectors. Wastewater reuse after treatment is gaining acceptance world wide, as availability of fresh water sources decreases. However, it is also important to point out social and cultural differences that still exist in different pars of the world including those where reuse of wastewater for food production or any domestic use is not yet acceptable. The major concerns with effluent reuse are primarily its impact on human health and environmental risk. As a result, effluent reuse should be undertaken with caution after careful consideration of the potential impacts and risks. This thesis examined the potential to use the hydroponics nutrient film technique to grow commercially important crops using secondary-treated domestic wastewater. The crops chosen were a fruit crop (Lycopersicon esculantum - tomato), a leafy crop (Beta vulgaris ssp. cicla - silver beet) and a flower crop (Dianthus caryophyllus - carnation). Secondary-treated domestic wastewater was chosen because of the reduced risk of pathogen and heavy metal contamination in the crops and due to the guideline requirements for use of treated effluent for food crops. The possibility of using the effluent after the hydroponics treatment for further irrigation was also studied. The ability of secondary-treated effluent to supply adequate nutrients to the crops was assessed relative to a commercially available hydroponics solution (Chapter 3). The amount of time the solution was left in the system (nutrient solution retention time) was dependant on the plant uptake of the solution. The results obtained showed that the nutrients in secondary treated effluent was adequate for the carnations, but not for the food crops. The food crops from both treatments were compared to the produce purchased from a supermarket. The food crops showed signs of nutrient deficiency, particularly nitrogen. Based on the findings of the first experiment, the nutrient solution retention time was amended to 14 days. The carnations were not tested with the shorter nutrient solution retention time (NSRT) because they performed well in the previous trial with the longer nutrient solution retention time. The edible food crops performed better and did not show signs of nutrient deficiency when the nutrient solution retention time was reduced to 14 days. Further statistical analysis was conducted with the data from Chapters 3 and 4. Nutrient and water balances were calculated and the possible reason that the plants grown in the 14-day nutrient solution retention time took up more water, was a result of increased nutrients and better growth. A simple model was constructed to calculate height of the plants using multiple regression. The model was validated against the data collected from this study. The experiment conducted in Chapter 6 determined the nutritional quality of the food crops. The harvests from the wastewater and commercially available hydroponics solution were compared to produce purchased from a supermarket and tested for total caroteniods, total soluble solids and ascorbic acid concentrations. The nutritional quality of the wastewater grown produce was comparable to those grown in the hydroponic solution and those purchased. The risk of pathogen contamination to food crops and the die-off of pathogens in the hydroponic channels were studied in Chapter 7. This was tested by spiking the commercial hydroponic medium with Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium and monitoring bacterial pathogen die-off in the secondary treated domestic wastewater. The pathogen quality of the crop was tested in all treatments as well as on organically grown produce found at a local supermarket. The results of this experiment did not show any contamination on the surface of the food crops or within the food crops. This study demonstrated that growing tomatoes, silver beet and carnations using secondary-treated domestic wastewater was successful when the nutrient solution retention time was adjusted to the optimum level. In arid, developing and remote communities, this system is ideal as it conserves and reuses water for commercially important crops without compromising the health of the environment or of human beings. It can also be implemented in urban areas, as the system can be scaled according to the availability of space. In addition to this, the effluent after going through this system can be used for open irrigation as it meets the World Health Organisation guidelines. However, a number of additional concerns need further investigation. They include the transmission risk of other types of pathogen, which depends on the source of wastewater, and the effects of hormones and antibiotics on food crops and their effect on human health.

Abstract:
Abstract Along with new types of protected cropping structures, materials and technology, the range and diversity of hydroponic crops grown are also expanding. While the greenhouse mainstays of nursery plants, tomatoes, capsicum, cucumber, salad vegetables and herbs will continue to expand in volume, newer, speciality and niche market crops are growing in popularity. These include new cut flower species, potted plants and ornamental crops, and a growing trend in the commercial production of medicinal herbs using high-technology methods such as aeroponics. Exotic culinary herbs such as wasabi, dwarf fruiting trees and spices such as ginger and vanilla are now grown commercially in protected cropping structures, while many home gardeners continue to take up hydroponics and protected cropping as both a hobby and a means of growing produce. Protected cropping and hydroponic methods will further their expansion into hostile climates which never previously allowed the production of food.

Abstract:
Hydroponics is an agricultural cultivation system without using soil media. Hydroponics is an agricultural activity carried out using water as a medium to replace soil. Hydroponics emphasizes meeting the nutritional needs of plants through the flow of water. If nutrients are given through fertilizer in soil media, then in hydroponics, the nutrients are dissolved and flow through water. The concentration of nutrients that dissolve in water will affect the high and low pH of the water. The pH level in the water will affect the development and growth of plants. In addition, air humidity can also affect plant growth, especially for plants grown in a greenhouse. Therefore, special attention is needed to maintain the pH level in the water. The particular concern is when is the right time to replace the water or add nutrients to the water. However, the large land area and the limited number of workers owned by the partners make it difficult for them to monitor the development and growth of existing plants. Therefore, a sensor will be installed in the hydroponic system to monitor the plant's development and growth. Based on the results of the tests and evaluations, the three hydroponic monitoring sensors, which include the pH sensor, nutrient solution concentration sensor, and air humidity sensor, may be properly programmed on the Arduino. The measurements between sensors and manual measurements showed an error value of 0.36% for pH measurements, 0.56% for EC measurements, and 0.42% for humidity measurements.

Abstract:
Feeds and animal nutrition presents a major sector in providing food security. However, there is a large gap between fodder supply and demand [1]. This gap can be attributed basically to climatic changes, urbanization and increase in meat demand. Nowadays, especially after the covid-19 pandemic, there is a crucial problem in supplying fresh green feed to remote and urban regions. Hydroponic fodder is an alternative solution to provide the sustainability of quality forage for ruminant. Hydroponics can include several crops such as maize, wheat and barley, the fodder can be produced in a short duration (6-10 days) and all year around. The hydroponics fodder present various benefits for animal health. Feeding hydroponically produced fodder increases the digestibility of the nutrients in the ration, which could increase milk production [2]. Hydroponic fodder production is an economic solution particularly where the conventional production of green fodder is limited or unavailable. This technology put forward a solution to address the shortage of forage production caused by the scarcity of green feed in dry seasons and urban areas [3]. That´s why, further studies and academic efforts are needed to expand hydroponic fodder production. The purpose of this study is to review the actual literature on hydroponic fodder production process, nutritious value and effects on livestock production and productivity.

Abstract:
In intensive agriculture, harmful soilborne biotic agents, cause severe damage. These include both typical soilborne (clinical) major pathogens which destroy plants (e.g. Fusarium and Phytophthora pathogens), and subclinical ("minor") pathogens (e.g. Olpidium and Pythium). The latter cause growth retardation and yield decline. The objectives of this study were: (1) To study the behavior of clinical (major) and subclinical (minor) pathogens in plant growth substrate, with emphasis on zoosporic fungi, such as Pythium, Olipidium and Polymyxa. (2) To study the interaction between subclinical pathogens and plants, and those aspects of Pythium biology which are relevant to these systems. (3) To adopt a holistic-integrated approach for control that includes both eradicative and protective measures, based on a knowledge of the pathogens' biology. Zoospores were demonstrated as the primary, if not the sole propagule, responsible for pathogen spread in a recirculating hydroponic cultural system, as verified with P. aphanidermatum and Phytophthora capsici. P. aphanidermatum, in contrast to Phytophthora capsici, can also spread by hyphae from plant-to-plant. Synthetic surfactants, when added to the recirculating nutrient solutions provided 100% control of root rot of peppers by these fungi without any detrimental effects on plant growth or yield. A bacterium which produced a biosurfactant was proved as efficacious as synthetic surfactants in the control of zoosporic plant pathogens in the recirculating hydroponic cultural system. The biosurfactant was identified as a rhamnolipid. Olpidium and Polymyxa are widespread and were determined as subclinical pathogens since they cause growth retardation but no plant mortality. Pythium can induce both phenomena and is an occasional subclinical pathogen. Physiological and ultrastructural studies of the interaction between Olpidium and melon plants showed that this pathogen is not destructive but affects root hairs, respiration and plant nutrition. The infected roots constitute an amplified sink competing with the shoots and eventually leading to growth retardation. Space solarization, by solar heating of the greenhouse, is effective in the sanitation of the greenhouse from residual inoculum and should be used as a component in disease management, along with other strategies.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract: Phosphorus is one of the least available macronutrient in the soil. The high affinity phosphate transporters are known to be associated with phosphate acquisition under natural conditions. Due to unique interactions of phosphate with soil particles, up to 80% of the applied phosphates may be fixed forcing the farmers to apply 4 to 5 times the fertilizers necessary for crop production. Efficient uptake and utilization of this essential nutrient is essential for sustainability and profitability of agriculture. Many predictions point to utilization/exhaustion of high quality phosphate rocks within this century. This calls for efforts to improve the ability of plants to acquire and utilize limiting sources of phosphate in the rhizosphere. Two important molecular and biochemical components associated with phosphate efficiency are phosphate transporters and phosphatases. This research project is aimed at defining molecular determinants of phosphate acquisition and utilization in addition to generating phosphate uptake efficient plants. The main objectives of the project were; Creation and analysis of transgenic tomato plants over-expressing phosphatases and transporters Characterization of the recently identified members (LePT3 and LePT4) of the Pi transporter family Generate molecular tools to study genetic responses of plants to Pi deficiency During the project period we have successfully identified and characterized a novel phosphate transporter associated with mycorrhizal symbiosis. The expression of this transporter increases with mycorrhizal symbiosis. A thorough characterization of mutant tomato lacking the expression of this gene revealed the biological significance of LePT3 and another novel gene LePT4. In addition we have isolated and characterized several phosphate starvation induced genes from tomato using a combination of differential and subtractive mRNA hybridization techniques. One of the genes, LePS2 belongs to the family of phospho-protein phosphatase. The functionality of the recombinant protein was determined using synthetic phosphor-peptides. Over expression of this gene in tomato resulted in significant changes in growth, delay in flowering and senescence. It is anticipated that phospho-protein phosphatase may have regulatory role in phosphate deficiency responses of plants. In addition a novel phosphate starvation induced glycerol 3-phosphate permease gene family was also characterized. Two doctoral research students are continuing the characterization and functional analysis of these genes. Over expression of high affinity phosphate transporters in tobacco showed increased phosphate content under hydroponic conditions. There is growing evidence suggesting that high affinity phosphate transporters are crucial for phosphate acquisition even under phosphate sufficiency conditions. This project has helped train several postdoctoral fellows and graduate students. Further analysis of transgenic plants expressing phosphatases and transporters will not only reveal the biological function of the targeted genes but also result in phosphate uptake and utilization efficient plants.
