Grow food indoors with science and technology
Vertical farming and hydroponics technicians operate controlled environment agriculture (CEA) facilities — managing nutrient solutions, climate systems, lighting, and plant health to produce crops year-round without soil.
You check pH and EC readings first thing, adjust nutrient solutions, inspect plants for pests or deficiencies, transplant seedlings into vertical towers, calibrate LED lighting schedules, harvest mature greens, and log everything for quality tracking.
