| dc.description | Vertical farming is an engineering technique that uses vertical space to grow food in a controlled area, increasing production in a small area. The main objective is to provide sustainable and efficient solutions to the growing demand for food in urban areas with limited resources. This approach can improve food security, especially in urban and low-income groups, by providing fresh, organic food without chemicals or toxins. Vertical farming aims to increase food production by optimizing the use of land and resources while reducing dependence on climate and environmental conditions. The technologies used include the use of hydroponic systems and new agricultural techniques that allow year-round harvesting in urban environments. The main results of vertical farming are 95% less water use and 99% less land use compared to traditional agriculture. Additionally, it reduces emissions by reducing the need to transport food and avoiding the use of pesticides, making production cleaner and more efficient. But challenges include high implementation costs and the need for modern technology, as well as waste issues and potential impacts on traditional farmers. In conclusion, vertical farming is a viable solution to food security and sustainability problems, although its success depends on overcoming technical and economic challenges. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | La agricultura vertical es una técnica de ingeniería que utiliza el espacio vertical para cultivar alimentos en un área controlada, aumentando la producción en un área pequeña. El objetivo principal es proporcionar soluciones sostenibles y eficientes a la creciente demanda de alimentos en zonas urbanas con recursos limitados. Este enfoque puede mejorar la seguridad alimentaria, especialmente en los grupos urbanos y de bajos ingresos, al proporcionar alimentos frescos y orgánicos sin productos químicos ni toxinas. La agricultura vertical tiene como objetivo aumentar la producción de alimentos optimizando el uso de la tierra y los recursos y al mismo tiempo reduciendo la dependencia del clima y las condiciones ambientales. Las tecnologías utilizadas incluyen el uso de sistemas hidropónicos y nuevas técnicas agrícolas que permiten la cosecha durante todo el año en entornos urbanos. Los principales resultados de la agricultura vertical son un 95% menos de uso agua y un 99% menos de uso de la tierra en comparación con la agricultura tradicional. Además, reduce las emisiones al reducir la necesidad de transportar alimentos y evitar el uso de pesticidas, haciendo que la producción sea más limpia y eficiente. Pero los desafíos incluyen los altos costos de implementación y la necesidad de tecnología moderna, así como problemas de desperdicio y posibles impactos en los agricultores tradicionales. En conclusión, la agricultura vertical es una solución viable a los problemas de seguridad alimentaria y sostenibilidad, aunque su éxito depende de la superación de desafíos técnicos y económicos. | es_ES |
