Thanks for all the info Rodolfo

My question... what land area are you planning to use overall, looks to me as a minimum of one hectare.

Hello Mellowg

We have almost 10 Ha (9.78Ha to be more precise) of land.
Each system is about 50m x 20m. So 1 Ha can accomodate easily 7 systems maybe 8.
We have prepared space for 3 systems and if we copy and mirror the 3 systems we will have six systems in about a little more than 8000m2.
We are working in to make better use of the space by using adjacent spaces and also by locating the production greenhouse and future hatchery next to the AP systems.

We have also started to plant fruit trees (mango, avocado, zapote, cashew, tamarind, coconut, banana, plantain, papaya, cocoa, orange, lime, and other local species) 150 for now and 450 more in a the next couple of months also we have planted Moringa trees and Leucaena as fodder crops

Thanks for all the info Rodolfo

Hi Rodolpho
thank you for the photos, indeed it seems like a well planned system. are all the beds being planned as floating raft beds, or will there be gravel or other media growbeds as well? and the tree's you mentioned - are they part of the aquaponics system (i assume not, but had to ask..)?
looking forward to hear about your progress
regards,
Tomer (Israel)

Hello Tomer.
Thank you for your comments.
All beds are floating raft.
No the trees are planted in other part of the property, but we want to used the water from the clarifiers to water the fruit trees.
I can not access my fcebook account. My company has strict rules against it.
I do not have internet at home. I tried several times and ended disconecting, coz the cost was high and the service appauling.
