How to grow Fish Poo Salad!? | Aquaponics for Kids | Maddie Moate

The video explores aquaponics, a sustainable farming method combining aquaculture and hydroponics. It highlights Bio Aqua Farm in Somerset, where fish waste is used to nourish plants, creating a closed-loop ecosystem. The process involves biofilters and bacteria to convert ammonia into nitrates, which plants absorb. The system efficiently recycles water and nutrients, supporting diverse plant growth without soil. The video emphasizes aquaponics' sustainability, requiring minimal external inputs, and showcases its potential for producing both fish and plants in harmony.
