A measure of how effectively resources, such as water, nutrients, and energy, are utilized to achieve maximum crop yield in indoor farming.
The process of using composting worms, such as red wigglers (Eisenia fetida), to decompose organic waste and produce nutrient-rich vermicompost for use in indoor farming.
A vertical structure with multiple stacked layers or shelves, often equipped with hydroponic or aeroponic systems, to maximize space utilization and crop production in indoor farming.
Practices that optimize water use efficiency in indoor farming, such as recycling, rainwater harvesting, and implementing water-saving irrigation methods.
The practice of covering the soil surface around plants with a protective layer of organic or inorganic materials, such as straw, wood chips, or plastic, to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.
The level of brightness or luminous flux of light reaching a specific area. Different plant species have varying light intensity requirements for optimal growth.
An approach that combines different farming methods, such as crop production, livestock rearing, and aquaculture, in a mutually beneficial and sustainable manner.
A hydroponic system where a thin film of nutrient solution continuously flows over the roots of plants, promoting nutrient uptake while maintaining oxygen levels.
The process by which a seed sprouts and develops into a new plant, typically triggered by favorable conditions such as moisture, warmth, and oxygen.
