In recent years, hydroponic fodder production in controlled environment (CE) settings has received an increased amount of attention. This is mostly because to the scarcity of agricultural land for food production as well as the detrimental effects of climate change. On the other hand, the most significant challenges for the continuation of fodder production in the CE are the problems with dry matter and the expenses of operations. This research presents a complete literature analysis on methods and control strategies for indoor settings and watering that are presently utilized and might be adopted in the future to accomplish the economic and environmental sustainability of controlled environment fodder production. These techniques and control strategies are already being used to achieve the goal of sustainable controlled environment fodder production (CEFP). According to the current studies, the production of fodder using a hydroponic system is gaining popularity in industrialized nations, although the use of low-tech systems such as greenhouses is more common in underdeveloped countries. The development of hydroponically grown plants may be employed in agriculture to increase the economic viability, environmental friendliness, and ecological integrity of farming. The tests carried out on Asr wheat and Zamin wheat by means of the hydroponic plant technology, which is utilized to provide fodder for the local cattle. We compare the traditional cow feeding way and the hydroponic plant of cereal way. And the local cattle farmers' receptivity to growing cereal crops in hydroponic systems.
