Australia Take a Deeper Look at Aquaponics

Aquaponics is fish farming and vegetable growing, in which vegetable crops take up fish wastes, and freshened water returns to the fish tank. City spaces are considered ideal for aquaponics, especially rooftops and walls.

According to the news agency Environmental Protection, the lectures on these topics are planned in conjunction with the Skrettings Australasian Aquaculture International Conference and Trade Show in Brisbane, Queensland.

The aim is to encourage aquaponics (fish farming and vegetable farming) on school rooftops, where equipment can be more safely held.
