Current Situation & Challenges
Fertigation delivers fertilizers through irrigation water, while hydroponics relies on nutrient solutions to support crop growth. Oklahoma State University recommends daily pH and EC checks in hydroponic systems, as pH affects nutrient availability and EC indicates dissolved salt levels. Changing water quality and nutrient conditions make regular monitoring essential for consistent crop nutrition.
