The term 'Hydroponics' was derived from Greek words 'hydro' means water and 'ponics' means labor. Hydroponic is a modern agricultural technique that uses nutrient solution rather than soil solution for fodder production. As population increases the food demand also increased, the existing system of agriculture will not be able to meet the food requirement in the near future due to environmental challenges in the industry. The major environmental factors affecting the hydroponics production system are; Temperature, relative humidity, and light. The objectives of this studies are to examine the hydroponics greenhouse technologies, impact of environmental factors on hydroponics greenhouse cultivation and challenges of growing on hydroponics greenhouse system. This study revealed that hydroponics greenhouse cultivation is a better option for improved fodder production, water utilization, palatability and digestibility.

Malnutrition is both one of the consequences of social injustice and one of the factors contributing to its maintenance. It bears hardest on small children, contributing to the massive death toll among the young, and together with other adverse environmental factors it interferes with the adequate growth and development of the survivors. It reduces their capacity to learn during childhood and to earn during adulthood. The inevitable result is a downward spiral in which poor malnourished parents produce malnourished children who in turn will become poor and malnourished parents.

The time of occurrence of 12 neuromuscular patterns of behavior in the development of 2 groups of Negro infants from different socio-economic levels during the first year of life is presented. The Negro infants from the clinic showed acceleration over the Negro infants from private practice in their development from the 8th to the 35th week of life, after which time, the development of the 2 groups was essentially the same. The Negro infants as a group showed acceleration in their development when compared with a group of white infants studied in a similar manner by Aldrich except in 2 patterns, "smiling" and "vocalization." A marked similarity was noted during the first 30 weeks of life in the development of the white and Negro infants from private practice whose socio-economic backgrounds were substantially similar. The differences and similarities observed in the neuromuscular behavior in the 3 groups studied may be attributed mainly to environmental factors. The observed acceleration in the Negro infants is apparently an expression of greater permissiveness in daily care as practiced by the mothers or mother substitutes in the lower socio-economic classes.

Environmental factors play a vital role in the growth and development of a child. The contribution of Manu Smriti Granth towards Indian culture holds the importance, that believes man and woman to be two important pillars of society and owes the responsibility being parents. This says that parent has a superior role to play than to a teacher in child’s development. To stand with the time, women are now becoming career oriented. Cultural nourishment is now an alarming concern as both man and woman remains occupied with job/business.

Physical development (RF) is one of the main indicators of health status, largely due to hereditary factors, depends on the living conditions and upbringing, social and environmental factors [1,2,3,4]. This is especially important for children and adolescents in the process of growth and development. At the present stage of scientific research of RF in pediatrics, there is a transition from the analysis of average RF indicators to a personalized assessment [5,6].

Intrinsic factors are known to play an integral part in skeletal morphogenesis (Willis, 1936; Fell, 1956). In particular, it has recently been demonstrated that the humerus (Felts, 1959) and femur (Chalmers & Ray, 1962) of the mouse develop, grow, and in many ways preserve their distinctive form when transplanted to non-functional sites. However, it is also widely recognized that internal and external environmental factors are important in determining skeletal growth and form (Sissons, 1956). The aim of this paper is to examine some of these extrinsic factors in terms of the effects of various types of host on the growth of subcutaneous transplants of the mouse humerus. The factors studied were environmental temperature, age and genotype including sex. It has been shown that the growth of the tail and foot of the mouse is influenced by environmental temperature, with higher temperatures producing longer extremities (Sumner, 1909; Harrison, Morton & Weiner, 1959).
