POLY CULTURE

INTEGRATED AQUACULTURE

HYDROPONICS

What the hell are these?
Lets start with AQUAPONICS is the integration of aquaculture and hydroponics. More then HYDROPONICS and more than INTEGRATED AQUACULTURE, a large dose of POLY CULTURE and then throw in a bit of AGRICULTURE that's about what we call AQUAPONICS. We take water and put it through multi uses, with each stage making use of what the previous stages have left behind,always returning clean water to the water table.MICRO AQUAPONICS.

POLY CULTURE

Is the growing of many things together for the mutual benefit for all. This is not limited to which plant goes with this plant, it extends to which plant feeds which fish and removes which pollutants, dose it oxygenate the water?, readily grow helpful bacteria, provide habitat or shelter, what is the plants end use? eg flowers for market/sale, saleable bulbs or fruit, is whole plant saleable, is it processable into fish food, compost/mulch, dose it have harmful byproducts. Poly culture also extends to running chickens in your orchard to deter other birds and eating the bugs and grubs as well as aerating the soil and some light weeding. Plus other advantages like eggs, meat, manure. As you can see there are considerable benefits from poly culture by it self. poly culture is an integral part of Aquaponics.

HYDROPONICS

Is the growing of plants, usually in a medium other than soil with all there growing requirements supplied through the water. This principle is used extensively in aquaponics, in the ponds, in the filters and in hydroponic gardens.

INTEGRATED AQUACULTURE

This is the process of integrating aquaculture with agriculture. In hi tec irragation systems, to replace fertizer, in stock dams for insect control or just for profit.

AQUAPONICS

Aquaponics is the integration of aquaculture with hydroponics, ultalising the nutirant rich water from your aquaculture farm as the nutrant base for growing hydroponicly.

MICRO AQUAPONICS

Micro Aquaponics is the solution to time and space problems experanced by moden families allowing food to be produced cheaply and cleanly in high denisity housing situations

Our objective is to pull all the above together to create a profitable venture that has a very low environmental impact, is self sustaining, has broad product base to protect it from market fluctuations, has nil or very low use of chemicals, creates no waste.
By Creating complete cycles, and not trying to control everything, will allow nature to fill in the gaps. Careful study and a watchful eye will let us supply what is needed and offer a helping hand when needed as well as averting disaster.
