The science/skill/technique

Hydroponics is the science of growing plants without soil, and it is becoming a popular choice for modern gardeners.

Hi,

Is "science" in the above equal to skill and technique? Thanks.

Hi Here, I think it means: An activity(hydrophonics) that appears to require study and method. But, yes, your interpretation of the meaning is also correct. But, I don't think you can replace it for 'science' in the sentence, though it almost means the same.
