Elaboration of a Feasibility Analysis of the Husipi Tabruna Project for the Creation of Hydroponic Gardens in the City of Quito

The emergence of new social problems has brought about a proliferation of alternative issues that must be solved and mitigated immediately. One such issue is the complication faced by the inhabitants of larger cities in acquiring healthy agricultural produce at an affordable price. Thus, the present investigation seeks to demonstrate the feasibility of offering hydroponic orchards in the city of Quito – the city with the second largest urban agglomerations in Ecuador according to the VII Population Census and VI Housing Census carried out on November 28, 2010. The objective of this research was to develop a feasibility project for the supply of customized hydroponic gardens in the city of Quito through related studies and analyses, and thereby being able to satisfy the need for organic and healthy produce. A field and documentary research was conducted and data were extracted directly from the inhabitants of Quito. Additional information was collected through the main national databases. The results obtained through comparative analysis showed that offering hydroponic gardens in the city of Quito is feasible.
