Vertical farming an innovative agricultural technique, involves cultivating crops in vertically stacked layers under a controlled environment, optimizing parameters like temperatures, light, humidity, and nutrients. This method ensures year-round high-quality produce, addressing challenges posed by limited arable land, urbanization, and environmental changes. In India, where staple crops like rice, wheat, and millet are essential for food security, economic stability, and livelihoods, vertical farming offers potential as a supplementary approach to traditional agriculture. Vertical farming has promising potential due to its efficient resource utilization, reduced reliance on pesticides, and adaptability to the urban environment. Advances in climate?resilient crops, efficient technologies, and supportive policies are critical to scaling up vertical farming for staples.
