  • Module 6 – Fish

    Fish If you’ve never kept fish before, you may be faintly hesitant at the prospect. Relax! When you operate authentic iAVs, you are engaging in freshwater aquaculture in its simplest and most cost-effective way. Freshwater aquaculture has been the subject of many doctorates…and its experts have published many substantial books. My point is that in…

  • Module 2 – Water

    Water Water that is suitable for sandgardening is free of chemicals and pollutants.  It’s potable – which means that it’s fit for human consumption and, – by extension – fit for growing food. Water sources include: Rainwater Mains – the municipal supply Rivers and lakes Wells and ponds There’s everything to like about rainwater. It’s free – and it’s the…

  • Overcoming major bottlenecks in aquaponics – A practical approach (summary)

    great references on why AP is not good enough – also sectionsonnitratelevels Summary Aquaponics is the combination of fish production in aquaculture and hydroponic (soilless) production of crop plants. Despite of representing already a sustainable, innovative approach for future food production systems, aquaponics are still missing economic success and up to date major bottlenecks were…
