Fadzil Aripin   Leonard Chua shared a post for the first time in a while: Imagine growing your own crop in a soil-less environment by raising fishes (which you can later eat 'em) at the same time. Yesterday, I visited a small Aquaponic Farm which my friend Chia Weng Yan and his partner Yoon are running. Looking at the setup, I asked "WHY AQUAPONIC?". Soil-grown (or traditional growth vegetables) are obviously a very successful and easily accessible way to garden and grow your own food, it can be relatively inexpensive in comparison to an aquaponics set up and of course at its very basic level the veggies rely on the various nutrients in the soil for plant growth and success. . Now, aquaponics on the other hand (this is where it gets interesting) is the combination of hydroponic plant growth and aquaculture. The plant growth takes place with no soil at all and the plants rely on the SHITS of the FISHES which are cycled through the grow beds for their nutrients and in return they filter the water for its return to the fish tank. . Actually, there's a way bigger vision than just aquaponics farming for my friend - Chia. He intends to turn this into a REAL-LIFE FARMVILLE where it allows you to virtually plant crops, monitor their growth from an app, and reaps your harvest in real-life and have them delivered to your doorsteps.
