In modern hydroponic farming systems, dissolved oxygen (DO) plays a critical role in root development, nutrient uptake, and overall crop productivity. Conventional systems often struggle to maintain optimal oxygen levels, resulting in limited growth efficiency and sub-optimal yields.
This case study evaluates the impact of NICO AGNIROOT 08 in improving oxygen availability, root health, and crop yield in a controlled hydroponic environment operated by a leading food delivery and quick commerce entity.
It accelerates root development while increasing dissolved oxygen (DO) levels in the nutrient solution, creating a more efficient growing environment. This leads to improved crop quality and higher daily harvesting yields. At the same time, it demonstrates the scalability and effectiveness of nanobubble technology in modern agriculture.
Prior to nanobubble integration, the hydroponic system exhibited typical constraints:
The system utilized NICO AGNIROOT 08 nanobubble system to enrich hydroponic water with ultra-fine oxygen bubbles (<200 nm), enhancing oxygen availability at the root zone.
