Hydroponics, derived from the Greek words "hydro" (water) and "ponos" (labor), is a soilless cultivation technique that relies on nutrient-rich water to nourish plants. In Mount Barker, where arable land is limited and water resources are precious, hydroponics presents an efficient and resource-conscious alternative. The town's farmers are increasingly embracing this method, recognizing its potential to overcome the constraints imposed by traditional farming.
