Referring to Figures 1 and 2 again, the method for processing vegetables containing fortified nutrients according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises the step S1: First, preparing a hydroponic water body or a culture solution. For example, the hydroponic water body may select various transportation modes from the hydroponic water supply unit 20, such as spray, drip irrigation, running water, water immersion or other transportation methods. For example, the hydroponic water body comprises a macronutrient element, a micronutrient, and at least one fertilizer salt, and has an appropriate pH value and dissolved oxygen amount.

Referring to Figures 1 and 2 again, the method for processing vegetables containing fortified nutrients according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises the step S2: subsequently, cultivating a hydroponic vegetable in the hydroponic water body, and monitoring the hydroponic water body Various culture conditions. For example, the hydroponic water supply unit 20 selects to supply the hydroponic water body to the hydroponic vegetable seedling 10 of the hydroponic vegetable garden 1 in a cyclical or non-circulating manner.

For example, the hydroponic vegetable comprises a leaf (eg, A dish), a tender stem (eg, lettuce), a flower (eg, broccoli), a stem (eg, potato, beet, carrot, white) Radish], a melon (eg, cucumber), a solanous fruit (eg, tomato), a fresh bean (eg, green beans), an onion and garlic (eg, onion), a dioscorea (eg: Taro, a strain of algae or a spice (eg celery, citron, pepper, leeks or nine-story pagoda).

Referring to Figures 1 and 2 again, the method for processing vegetables containing fortified nutrients according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises the step S3: subsequently, at least a predetermined amount of nutrient solution is added to the hydroponic body, and the nutrient is added. The liquid contains at least one fortified nutrient to cultivate a vegetable material containing fortified nutrients. For example, the nutrient solution supply unit 21 supplies the nutrient solution to the hydroponic vegetable seedling 10 of the hydroponic vegetable garden 1.

Referring to Figures 1 and 2 again, as the hydroponic vegetable seedling 10 grows, the fortified nutrient continuously enters the hydroponic vegetable seedling 10. For example, the fortified nutrient is selected as a single fortified nutrient or a composite fortified nutrient. The fortified nutrient comprises a fat-soluble vitamin or a water-soluble vitamin. The fat-soluble vitamin comprises vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, vitamin K or beta carotene. Further, the water-soluble vitamin contains vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, vitamin C, nicotinic acid, biotin, folic acid or pantothenic acid. In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fortifying nutrient further comprises an amino acid, a macro element, a trace element or a mineral. For example, the giant element contains calcium nitrate [Ca(NO ₃ ) ₂ . 4H ₂ O], potassium nitrate [KNO ₃ ], magnesium sulfate [MgSO ₄ . 7H ₂ O] or monoammonium phosphate [NH ₄ H ₂ PO ₄ ]; the trace elements include Fe-EDTA, boric acid [H ₃ BO ₃ ], manganese chloride [MnCl ₂ . 4H ₂ O], copper sulfate [CuSO ₄ . 5H ₂ O], zinc sulfate [ZnSO ₄ . 7H ₂ O] or sodium molybdate [Na ₂ MnO ₄ . 2H ₂ O].

In general, trace elements are also called beneficial elements, and generally trace elements include hydrogen [H], carbon [C], oxygen [O], nitrogen [N], potassium [K], calcium [Ca], magnesium [Mg ], phosphorus [P], sulfur [S], chlorine [Cl], boron [B], iron [Fe], manganese [Mn], zinc [Zn], copper [Cu], nickel [Ni] and molybdenum [Mo In addition, special trace elements may also be selected, which include sodium, silicon, selenium and cobalt.

Referring to Figures 1 and 2, for example, the root of the hydroponic vegetable seedling 10 includes diffusion, interception, and mass flow from the hydroponic water body. Diffusion: When there is a difference in nutrient concentration in the hydroponic water body, it can cause nutrient movement in a short distance, so that the nutrient is diffused from a high concentration to a low point, and finally tends to be evenly distributed. The hydroponic vegetable seedling 10 continuously absorbs nutrients from the rhizosphere, so that the nutrient concentration in the hydroponic water body near the root system is relatively reduced, resulting in a difference in nutrient concentration in the hydroponic water body. Therefore, nutrients with high nutrient concentrations in the hydroponic water gradually diffuse to the rhizosphere, and finally the nutrients are absorbed by the roots. Interception: When the root hair of the root system is in direct contact with the nutrients in the hydroponic water body, ion exchange is performed to intercept the nutrients, and thus the hydroponic vegetable seedling 10 obtains nutrients. Mass flow: Nutrient transpiration in the hydroponic water causes the nutrients to be transported to the rhizosphere. When the transpiration of the hydroponic vegetable seedling 10 consumes a large amount of water near the root layer, in order to maintain normal transpiration, the root system of the hydroponic vegetable seedling 10 must continuously absorb water from the surrounding environment. Therefore, a large amount of water in the hydroponic water body flows to the root portion thereof to supplement the vacancy of the water around the root system, thus generating a long-distance mass flow. At this time, the other nutrients in the hydroponic water body are transported to the rhizosphere of the hydroponic vegetable seedling 10 along with the flow of moisture.

Referring to Figures 1 and 2 again, the method for processing vegetables containing fortified nutrients according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises the step S4: Finally, the nutrient-containing vegetable raw material is subjected to a drying treatment or a low-temperature drying treatment to prepare a The functional vegetable processing material, and the functional vegetable processing material comprises the at least one fortified nutrient.

Referring to Figures 1 and 2 again, in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the method for processing vegetables containing fortified nutrients is selected to be a cold air dryer, a vacuum low temperature dryer, a freeze dryer or the like. The functional drying equipment is dried to treat the vegetable material containing the fortified nutrient.

Referring to Figures 1 and 3, the nutrient-containing vegetable processing material according to the first preferred embodiment of the present invention delivers a hydroponic nutrient 2 to a nutrient-containing vegetable material 11 during cultivation, and simultaneously The first fortified nutrient 211 and the second fortified nutrient 212 are added to the hydroponic water body in a predetermined ratio to obtain a functional vegetable processing material A. For example, the first fortified nutrient 211 and one second fortified nutrient 212 are supplied by the nutrient solution supply unit 21.

Please refer to Figure 3 again, the functional vegetable processing material A is made into a nutrient vegetable block, a fortified nutrient vegetable stick, a fortified nutrient vegetable grain, a fortified nutrient vegetable piece, a fortified nutrient vegetable powder, one Intensive nutrient seasoning powder or other fortified nutrient vegetable processing products.

Fig. 4 is a view showing a vegetable processing material containing a fortified nutrient in a second preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to Figures 3 and 4, in the second preferred embodiment of the present invention, the functional vegetable processing material A is made into a fortified nutrient seasoning powder 100, such as a fragrant powder or a citron powder. The nutrient-containing vegetable raw material is ground to form a fortified nutrient vegetable powder. According to another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the nutrient-containing vegetable raw material is pulverized to form a nutrient-rich vegetable pieces.

For example, in general consumption, long-term vegetarians lack vitamin B12, so they can choose to add the fortified nutrient vegetable powder to foods such as rice, porridge, dishes, snacks, noodles, soups, drinks or other daily foods. Or a fortified nutrient seasoning powder.

The foregoing preferred embodiments are merely illustrative of the invention and the technical features thereof, and the techniques of the embodiments can be carried out with various substantial equivalent modifications and/or alternatives; therefore, the scope of the invention is subject to the appended claims. The scope defined by the scope shall prevail. The copyright limitation of this case is used for the purpose of patent application in the Republic of China.
