“…Progress has been rapid and results obtained in various countries have proved it to be thoroughly practical and to have very definite advantages over conventional methods of agriculture/horticulture. The two chief merits of the soilless cultivation of plants are, first, much higher crop yields, and secondly, the fact that hydroponics can be used in places where ordinary agriculture or gardening is impossible (Koriesh et al, 2020) [37] . Besides these, there are other advantages listed below.…”

Hydro propagation is a novel strategy for plant multiplication, and essential for sustainable agriculture. This approach does not require any soil at all; plant portions especially plant cuttings are simply immersed in nutrient-rich water solutions. It has many advantages including root development, water conservation, and effective nutrient delivery. Hydro propagation is a promising approach for easy multiplication and quality production of crops. It has exact control over growing conditions, increasing plant propagation success rates. Moreover, this technique is also helpful for environment as it does not involve any kind of pesticides application and soil borne diseases. This abstract reveals the fundamentals and advantages of hydro propagation, emphasizing how it can completely transform the traditional way of cultivation. The objective of this review paper is to compile the conclusions and results regarding hydro propagation till date. This paper also involves the future directions necessary for further research and awareness.
