Aquaponics

, 2023
Aquaponics is a sustainable method of food production that combines aquaculture and hydroponics to grow fish and crops without soil. It involves a harmonious cycle between the fish and plants. In this system, fish waste (ammonia) is utilized as a nutrient source for the plants, which act as a bio-filter by absorbing nitrate, a vital component for ...
