NFT and Grow Bag Setup for the BV yard (Indian Navy)
We’re proud to have successfully designed and developed a customized hydroponics system specially tailored for the Indian Navy. This innovative solution enables the cultivation of fresh vegetables in remote and challenging locations — such as naval ships and isolated bases — where access to traditional farming or fresh produce is often limited.
Our soil-less farming setup is built around two proven methods: Nutrient Film Technique (NFT) and Deep Water Culture (DWC). These techniques ensure efficient use of water and nutrients while maximizing yield in a compact space — making them ideal for the Navy’s unique operational environments.
The system is fully automated and designed to function effectively under limited sunlight, space constraints, and fluctuating temperatures. It includes features like:
Artificial grow lights
Real-time pH and EC monitoring
IoT-based remote control and automation
One of the standout aspects of this project is its modular and scalable design, allowing the system to be easily transported, set up, and expanded based on mission requirements. It's also made from corrosion-resistant materials to handle harsh marine conditions, and built to be low-maintenance and energy-efficient — critical factors for long-term deployment at sea or in remote bases.
Beyond meeting immediate food production needs, this project represents a forward-thinking step toward sustainability and self-reliance for our defense forces. It aligns with the goals of Atmanirbhar Bharat and showcases how cutting-edge agri-tech can serve national security and well-being.
We’re honored to support the Indian Navy with a reliable, eco-friendly, and high-tech food solution — and to contribute to a future where our armed forces have greater independence in every sphere, including food security.
