Aeroponics – Commercial Use
Companies that produce crops on a commercial scale feed
billions of people a year, and soon they may feed more. The Aeroponics system
has the capability to produce this food. However, on such a large scale as this
Aeroponics is not cost effective. The amount of money that would be required to
start an endeavourer such as this would be tremendous. The profits in the long
run as well may not be high enough to make it worthwhile for the companies that
would convert to this style of growing. The rapid production of food may not be
beneficial to an economy either. With a large amount of food, and not enough
people to buy it, the demand would plummet, and prices would fall into a large
pit, one that we would not be likely to see the bottom of. Aeroponics is a
system that is best kept at a small scale, about the scale of an Urban Farmer
who may be only be farming to better support his family, not an entire nation.
