The soilless way of growing fresh and healthy vegetables has been gaining popularity because of the lack of space for farming and the demands for healthy and organic produce. The two soilless growing methods that are popular among gardeners and farmers are aquaponics and hydroponics. While these two methods follow the same principles, there are a few differences between them.
What is Aquaponics?
What is Hydroponics?
Hydroponics is the growing of plants without soil through nutrient solutions. In hydroponics, plants are grown in an inert medium, and they are fed with a nutrient-rich solution.
The training comprises the following topics:
- Hydroponic production systems
- Aquaculture production systems
- Converting Hydroponic and Aquaculture systems to Aquaponics
- Process flow of Aquaponics
- Aquaponics feeding ratios
- Discounted Pay-back Period
- Break-even analysis
