HYDAPT
HYDAPT is an adaptable hydroponic system that addresses our destructive relationship with food and its production in rural regions. HYDAPT utilizes the sides of buildings in urban areas for scaled food production based on community involvement. The system is adaptable because it can convert from a passive hydroponic system (Kratky Method) to a non-passive hydroponic system (Drip Method) this changes dependant on community involvement and the scale of crop production.
