This course covers the design side of aquaponics, from the logic of combining fish tanks with hydroponic beds to the individual parts a system needs. The instructor draws on their own project, Urban Kheti, which the description places in North India, so the lessons come from a working setup.
Lectures are presentation slides with the instructor's voiceover, so you can focus on the material rather than a speaker on screen. The course encourages you to innovate and build your own system, and it ends with literature and resources for further study.
Welcome to the course of aquaponic farming! and learn about intriguing concepts combining aquaculture (raising fish in captivity) and hydroponics (growing plants without soil).
The course is based on my learnings that I gained while studying scattered information on aquaponics from various sources and implementing it in my project “Urban Kheti”. The project successfully made its mark in India as first-of-its-farm in North India, featured in short documentary on aquaponics by Down to Earth,available of YouTube titled “Aquaponics can be a profitable agriculture technique for Indian Farmers”. The project also featured on various international and national news platforms such as The Times of India, The Hindu, Punjab Kesari,Dainik Jagran, Better India, Hortidaily etc.
The lectures in this tutorial are in the form of Audio/Presentation mashup. What that means is that you will see a video of power point slides with my voice over. You don’t have to do anything – the slides will appear at the right time with right concepts.
The course will provide you with basic understanding in following topics and encourage you to innovate and build your own system:
- Introduction to aquaponics
- Water Chemistry
- Aquaponic components
- Design of fish tank, mechanical filter, biofilter, sump and hydroponic systems
- Management of farm and troubleshoot of problems and solutions.
The lectures will end with some handy literature and useful resources as you embark on an aquaponic journey.
