Efficient Hydroponic NFT Farming in UAE Greenhouses

The client, Ahmed, comes from the hot and dry climate of the UAE and is an experienced farmer who has been growing leafy greens such as lettuce, oleaginous vegetables and celery using traditional soil-based cultivation methods. However, due to scarce precipitation, water constraints and rising labor costs, he decided to try hydroponic system farming to improve resource utilization and reduce operating costs.

After communicating with us, we recommended the A-type NFT Multi-Layer Growing System to him. The system adopts A-shaped multi-layer structure with high planting density and small footprint, which is especially suitable for mass production in greenhouses. NFT hydroponic system circulates water and nutrients through pipes and supplies them directly to the roots of the plants, realizing continuous nourishment and significant water saving, which is extremely suitable for the high temperature and low rainfall conditions in the UAE.

We customized a complete NFT hydroponics solution for our client Ahmed, including growing frames, NFT piping, baskets, pumps, circulation system and other components, and designed a reasonable layout according to the space of the greenhouse.The NFT hydroponics system's modular structure makes it easy to install, simple to operate, and easy to maintain on a daily basis.

The hydroponic system has been put into use for less than two months, and the customer feedbacks that the vegetables grow vigorously, the system operates stably, and the yield is significantly improved compared with the traditional cultivation method.Ahmed is very satisfied with the effect of NFT hydroponics, and plans to expand the scale of cultivation in the next stage by adding more A-type NFT hydroponics systems, and at the same time tries to expand the scale of commercial farms by introducing strawberries and herbaceous hydroponics crops.
