In times of increasing climate change, where wild fires blaze across crops and water vanishes into shortages, water and energy conservation becomes increasingly important around the globe. The way world economy is going, seasonality of produce will become more pronounced and some foods will not be available year round anymore. Through greenhouse cultivation and indoor aquaculture concepts we can help you to get ready! You won’t have to face a shortage of foods. Indoor growing is not reliant on season but on the efficiency of the space and energy used.
Greenhouse and Indoor Grow-Space Installation:
“Who loves a garden, loves a greenhouse too.” — William Cowper
Thermal energy collection and conversion in a greenhouse allows for produce, herbs, and fruits to brighten up your space. It is accumulating the heat of the day and giving it back during the cooler hours of the night.
We can help you choose the right greenhouse for your property or just set you up with smaller sized indoor tent gardens to create garden ambiance right in your house.
Indoor – Aquaculture and Wicking Beds For Year Round Harvesting:
“Water is a precious commodity in developing nations, and because the majority of the water used is recycled through in an aquaponics system, significantly less water is consumed than in traditional farming,” – Tony Abuta, Founder of Amsha
Aquaponics (/ˈækwəˈpɒnɪks/) may be the solution! It refers to any 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 an aquaponic system, water from an aquaculture system is fed to a hydroponic system where the waste by-products are broken down by nitrifying bacteria initially into nitrites and subsequently into nitrates that are utilized by the plants as nutrients. Then, the water is recirculated back to the aquaculture system.
Aztec cultivated agricultural islands known as chinampas in a system considered by some to be an early form of aquaponics for agricultural use; The whole of Southeast Asia, where rice is cultivated and farmed in paddy fields in combination with fish, are cited as examples of early aquaponics systems dating back to 5AD in Asia; And The 13th century Chinese agricultural manual Wang Zhen’s Book on Farming (王禎農書) described floating wooden rafts which were piled with mud and dirt and which were used for growing rice, wild rice, and fodder. – Source Wikipedia
Fish grow their own food, so the system is self-supporting. It could improve people in developing countries’ lives by increasing food security, employment opportunities and economic growth.” – Ken Konschel, Aquaponics Africa.
