Future challenges or the unrelenting human mind provide us with new ideas that make the unthinkable a reality, changing all our representations of how things might be done in a completely different and more beneficial way. It was inevitable that the agricultural sector would change dramatically over the years, as new challenges were not considered in traditional farming. Vertical farming is a new way of growing some vegetables in a more unique way that benefits in many aspects. The novel aspect that might find a new discoverer of the technique is no soil usage in growing vegetables. There are other aspects that put this technique ahead in some cases. This article will focus on explaining what vertical farming is and also its advantages and disadvantages. Also, the future application of the technique will be covered.
