Farmers: Would a water-saving hydroponic system actually work for you?

Farmers/agricultural professionals – Quick Question

Would you use a system that helps reduce water usage while maintaining crop growth?

 

Hi, we are Hydraea, exploring a low-cost Vertical hydroponics tower combined with hydrogel beads ( a material that absorbs water and slowly releases it ; retaining moisture levels for prolonged periods*), designed for areas like East Africa and regions with water scarcity and nutrient-deprived soil.*

 

Trying to understand real-world practicality: (questions)

Would this be useful or too complex?

What would stop farmers from adopting it?

 

Any honest feedback would be appreciated.
