Aquaponics
Aquaponics refers to food production systems of raising fish and plants in controlled environments, which at best mimic natural ecosystems. It involves the relationship between water, aquatic life, bacteria, nutrient dynamics and plants. The waste byproducts from the fish convert into a perfect fertilizer for plants. The plants in aquaponics systems clean the water.
NEW designs for the ecovillage include indoor aquaponics in geodomes and outdoor in retention ponds that may be beautiful examples to show how it’s possible to grow various kinds of fish and plants together.
There are many ways to DIY aquaponics solutions. NEW developments will be innovative, designed to be visually beautiful sustainable living systems. Much more information on this and many other topics in sustainable living can be developed with your support.
