Method for the floating cultivation of a plant (9), in which, in a first stage of growth, the roots of the plant are kept at a distance from a water supply (8) which is situated underneath the plant. The supply of moisture to said plant can be effected via the intermediate space (10) between the float for said plant and the water supply and from the top side of the plant (leaf part). As the plant develops further, the root system grows in the direction of the water supply and, in a second stage of growth, the vast majority of the water requirement is satisfied directly by said water supply. This is achieved by means of a panel (3) which floats on the water supply and is provided with holes (6) for accommodating the plant. If desired, this panel may be provided with recesses which are closed at their top sides and reduce the area of contact with the water and provide closed chambers (7).

L'invention concerne un procédé de culture flottante d'une plante (9), dans lequel, selon une première étape de croissance, les racines de la plante sont maintenues à distance d'une source d'eau (8) qui est située en dessous de la plante. L'apport d'humidité à ladite plante peut être effectué par le biais de l'espace intermédiaire (10) entre le flotteur pour la plante et la source d'eau, et par le côté supérieur de la plante (partie foliaire). Tandis que la plante poursuit son développement, le système racinaire pousse en direction de la source d'eau, et, selon une deuxième étape de croissance, la grande majorité des besoins en eau est satisfaite directement par cette source d'eau. Un tel résultat est obtenu au moyen d'un panneau (3) qui flotte sur la source d'eau et est muni de trous (6) pour loger la plante. Le cas échéant, ce panneau peut être muni d'évidements qui sont fermés sur les côtés supérieurs, réduisent la surface de contact avec l'eau et constituent des compartiments fermés (7).
