Urban Agriculture and Vertical Farming Technology in Agropolis

  1. A. N. Sarkar

Abstract

The concept of Urban Agriculture dates back 1915; whereas the Vertical Farming is relatively a recent concept. With the alarming pace of globalization, industrialization and urbanization there is visibly a huge population flux in the major cities with meteoric rise of demand for healthy food to feed the teeming millions. This has prompted the scientists to evolve alternate farming approaches to fill-in the gaps. The recent innovations and technological breakthrough have given rise to what are currently widely known as urban agriculture, vertical farming, roof-top farming, hydroponics. The paper is dedicated to discuss some of recent innovations made as well as technological breakthroughs in the field of urban agriculture and vertical farming in Agropolis.
