Aquaponics is a gardening technique which marries aquaculture and hydroponics to grow plants in nutrient-rich water from the fish waste. The good bacteria in your systems converts the ammonia waste into nitrates which are readily available to your plants. Aquaponics uses 90% less water than dirt farming because it is a recirculating system. You use far less fertilizers because the only inputs to your system are what you feed your fish. What you end up with is fruits and vegetables that taste amazing and grow more quickly, and protein-rich seafood for your community. Aquaponics is the future of localized food production. Look for details about an "off-grid" aquaponics project at the Gilroy Demonstration Garden in the next few months! santacruzsentinel/ci_23836792/future-agriculture-venture-aims-be-worlds-largest-aquaponics
