As the main result, recirculating hydroponics was chosen as the predominant method due to the excellent results obtained in relation to the others, additionally, it can be easily applied in urban environments due to its versatility and good resource management.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Hydroponics, Environment, Urban, Comparative, Techniques, Crop.</p&gt;}, number={4}, journal={Minerva}, author={Albuja, Vanessa and Andrade, Juan and Lucano, Carlos and Rodriguez, Michelle}, year={2021}, month={Mar.}, pages={45-54} }
