Aquaponics is a food
production system that combines conventional aquaculture, (raising
aquatic animals such as snails, fish, crayfish or prawns in tanks), with
hydroponics (cultivating plants in water) in a symbiotic environment. In
normal aquaculture, excretions from the animals being raised can
accumulate in the water, increasing toxicity. In an aquaponic system,
water from an aquaculture system is fed to a hydroponic system where the
by-products are broken down by nitrogen-fixing bacteria into nitrates
and nitrites, which are utilized by the plants as nutrients. The water
is then recirculated back to the aquaculture system.
As existing hydroponic and aquaculture farming techniques form the basis
for all aquaponics systems, the size, complexity, and types of foods
grown in an aquaponics system can vary as much as any system found in
either distinct farming discipline.
This reference library, on
one DVD, includes the following books, guides, and professional articles
