President, Dr Irfaan Ali recently toured the hydroponics farm at the National Agricultural Research and Extension Institute (NAREI), Mon Repos, East Coast Demerara, where several high-value crops are currently under cultivation. Some of the crops being cultivated are cauliflower, pak choy, and lettuce. The hydroponic farming technique is the process used to grow plants in water. This technology allows the roots to absorb nutrients dissolved in water that satisfy the development requirements of plants. Hydroponics has become one of the most cost-effective means of cultivating cash crops (Office of the President photo)
