What is Aquaponics Aquaponics is the integration of aquaculture (fish
farming) and Hydroponics (the soilless growing of plants)

Advantages of Aquaponics Double output from single main input
Fish feed
Water efficiency
As water is never discarded
Only lost to evapotranspiration and sludge removal
Climate change resilient
Drought resilient
Environmentally friendly production practices
Not dependent on arable land

Taylor Hall Aquaponic Project History
The project was first conceptualized as an assignment
The idea was encouraged to be put into practice by the lecturer
The group was formed and a disused nursery house was selected to be renovated and transformed into the aquaponic system

Challenges in Developing the system Funding
Lack of local knowledge on aquaponics or Recirculating Aquaculture (RAS)
First time building an aquaponic system
Some equipment not sold locally
