Abstract
A modular structure for aeroponic cultivations comprising a plurality of prefabricated side panels which are meant to receive plants being cultivated and a plurality of prefabricated flat bases to which the side panels are joined by means of respective interlock couplings in order to form a structure which is substantially shaped like an inverted V and in which the side panels are mutually connected along an upper ridge line by respective ridgecaps; a pumping unit and a spraying apparatus are also provided in order to feed an atomized nutrient solution inside the structure.
