Benefits of Soil Free Agriculture for Biofuel Production



Nowadays, demand and supply graph is rising at the exponential rate and the reason behind this particular phenomenon is population explosion on this planet. The conclusion is very simple and clear- demand of every product in the market is increasing and supply is considerably decreasing due to limited natural resources. Hence, researchers and scientists keep finding new and efficient ways to make this gap of demand and supply narrower.

Like every other product which is essential for sustainable growth of mankind, oil and fuel are going through the same phase of scarcity. Therefore, many companies have come up with the novice agricultural technique for the production of biofuel, and it is named as soil free agriculture. As the name suggests this type of agriculture doesn’t need any soil to produce, but the question is what can be produced without soil and how it can be beneficial for the production of biofuel?

Algae is produced underwater which neither demand soil nor water for its growth, moreover the yield is considerably very high as compared to the production we get from oilseed crushing of Canola, Flax or Soybean. Hence in near future, soil free agriculture for the production of biofuel from algae is going to revolutionize the lifestyle of human beings.
