Aquaponic systems benefit from the same benefits as hydroponics systems such as high-efficiency, high-yield production in climate-controlled environments.
Arguably more importantly, aquaponics leverages the fertilizing properties of aquaculture to grow produce. This method creates a symbiotic environment for produce and fish.
The closed system cycle of growth is centered on (1) fish providing organic nutrients through excretion, (2) microbes converting waste into nutrients for plants, (3) plants filtering water to balanced, agreeable levels for fish and microbes.
