Aquaponics is the combination of aquaculture and hydroponics. It involves growing fish and plants together in one integrated, soilless system. The fish provide a food source for the plants and the plants naturally filter the water in which the fish live. Aquaponics is a method of growing safe, fresh, all natural produce and seafood. Controlled Environment Agriculture is the process of controlling all parameters of an indoor environment so as to make it suitable to agricultural practices.
