Module 9 – Summary
Summary Think of building an iAVs as being like baking a cake. Recipes are guidelines that allow home cooks to produce a satisying result – without the need to acquire the knowledge and skills that would otherwise be required if you did not have the recipe. A recipe is a “quick start up guide” – a means…

Module 8 – Operate
Operate If you’ve reached this point, please accept our heartiest congratulations. You just became a sandgardener…with skin in the game. If you’re following our lead, your new system has been running for a couple of days. One of the core goals of the iAVs irrigation regime is to remove not less than 25% of the fish…

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 3 – Design
Design Every iAVs is identical to another in terms of its basic component parts and operating method – from a square metre to a million square metres. We’ve provided three system designs – each of them authentic iAVs – with the only difference being their size. It all comes down to your needs, preferences and…

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…
