Hydroponics is a cultivation system without using soil media.
The medium used in hydroponics is only the liquid medium and the nutrients that are necessary for plant growth.
Planting with hydroponics systems has several advantages.
Hydroponic cultivation can produce large agricultural products with faster periods.
In addition, narrow land is not a problem for hydroponic farming.
The almost non-existent use of pesticides and chemical drugs is a distinct advantage of hydroponic farming.
With hydroponics, plant products can be generated throughout the year and do not depend on the season.
This is because plants that are grown with hydroponic systems grow in closed or protected conditions.
What is Hydroponic Fodder?
Hydroponic fodder is animal feed grown from seeds without soil, and with little water. A week after the seeds have sprouted, the nutritious seedlings will be up to 30 cm tall. They can be produced every day of the year, even in the dry season. Reduced availability of grazing land and scarcity of water to cultivate fodder makes it hard to produce green fodder throughout the year. Hence, one can take advantage of hydroponic fodder.
Hydroponic Fodder
Hydroponics can also be applied to produce fodder or animal feed.
The hydroponic fodder system is usually by seeding cereal grains such as barley, wheat, sorghum and corn or legume seeds such as alfalfa.
If in other countries, hydroponic fodder which is usually used is barli grass because it has the highest nutritional content. But did not close the possibility for corn can also be developed.
The hydroponic fodder system consists of shelves that are used to place trays for seed sows.
After the seeds are soaked overnight, the seeds are spread to the tray. During the germination period, the seeds are kept moist but not excessive.
Trays are usually perforated as drainage while watering and providing nutrients is regulated through automatic or manual sprayer.
The seeds for fodder usually begin to germinate within 24 hours and within 5 – 8 days have grown to a height of about 15-20 cm.
After the fodder is taken from the tray, it can be given directly to Cows,goats and Animals can eat whole pieces of fodder, both leaves, stems and roots.
Feed fodder is a feed with very little waste. Some goats may not want to eat because they are not used to it. But it can be overcome by getting used to feed the fodder.
The most ideal place to make hydroponics is the greenhouse.
Because with the greenhouse can control the conditions of temperature, light and humidity.
The right environmental conditions are at a temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, 60% moisture and 16 hours of lighting per day.
How to make hydroponics fodder
Simply put, hydroponic fodder can be made with a simple system.
Simple shelves and trays that can be bought on the market. No temperature control, moisture regulator and additional light.
Here are the ways:
1. Wash the corn seeds, remove the floating dirt.
2. Soak with lukewarm water or cold water
3. Drain. Then, put it into a dark plastic Tray
4. After exit the root candidate, spread a thin one shaf (do not overlap) and cover with plastic or cloth t-shirts until the leaves will come out.
5. Open the cover and do watering regularly.
6. At 6 days of age, hydroponics fodder stems usually start.
Harvesting is done when it meets 10 x the weight of the seed (usually not up to 10x), or the thickness of the roots approximately 5 cm.
Or up to you, depending on your wishes.
7. Before being given to livestock, the hydroponic corn fodder is aerated to allow roots to dry from water, not dry in the sun.
The feed of the hydroponic corn Fodder is still young and fresh commensurate with fresh grass.
Therefore, hydroponic fodder feed usually has a high degree of palatibility.
Hydroponics Fodder expensive or cheap?
If the water content in the hydroponic fodder feed is ignored, the cost of hydroponic fodder feed is very cheap.
