Aquaponic Laboratory

Aquaponic Laboratory

Aquaponics is the raising of fish and plants in a recirculating ecosystem. The fish waste provides nutrients for the plants. Bacteria and plants help to clean the water for the fish.

Why is Aquaponics Important? Aquaponics can grow a tremendous amount of food with a fraction of the water that is normally used in soil based agriculture. Food can be grown directly in our communities, providing access to nutritious food, creating jobs and eliminating the huge carbon footprint associated with food transportation miles
