Abstract

There is a concern about the food crisis due to worldwide population increase and the future rise in food prices. It is therefore preferable to realize local food production for local consumption. We are developing a small indoor hydroponic system for household use, which uses sustainable energies, such as solar, wind, and hydrogen power. We have conducted experiments using a small hydroponic system to determine the environmental situation of the lettuce cultivation process. This paper will explain the developed low cost environmental sensing system and the results of the vegetable growth process with LED lighting control using small indoor hydroponic system.
