Farm/ Grow operation: 
Hydroponics
Location: 
Caguas, Puerto Rico
Objective of showcase: 

To create in impact and help address food security. To help out local farmers that are doing agroecological practices and help them boost their production organically and ecologically sound. To collaborate with a non-profit that is supporting the objective. To observe and determine the increased growth utilizing a hydroponics system integrated with AgroSonics. To demonstrate the difference of size and weight of various crops grown in a hydroponics system.

Type of plant(s): 
Tropicana
Approach of installation: 

We installed two units on one table on the right hand side of a outdoor tent style greenhouse. On the left hand side of the tent has the exact identical hydroponic table and irrigation system with no AgroSonic units. Tropicana lettuce was seeded and placed in the the two tables in the same tent. Everything was the same except one side had frequency and the other side didn't.

Observations: 

We saw the ability for the plants on the right hand side of the tent to grow double the size and weight two weeks quicker than the plants on the left hand side. The color was more vibrant with roots three times the size.
