- Every week, Eco India brings you stories that inspire you to build a cleaner, greener and better tomorrow.
Agriculture is the main source of livelihood for more than half of India’s population. Most farmers are poor, and many struggle to survive. New techniques hold out the promise of improving their productivity and income. One is aquaponics - a resource-saving system that marries fish and vegetable farming. We visited India's first aquaponics village - which aims to become fully self-sufficient for all its food needs.

More power to you to be working model for a sustainable earth which is pesticide and germ free 🙂
This is a wonderful initiative. I believe a possible solution to the gravelbed being clogged with roots is growing the plants in a hydroponics setup without the gravel and then passing the filtered water into a gravel bed if needed
Informative and knowledge collecting video
Very true... Wonderful initiative...
Yes !! Love from Saudi 🇸🇦❤️
If it wasn't for the beurocracy involved in fresh water pearl culture, they could have integrated that as well. That would have been an excellent way to recover initial cost as well as possibly making the setup more fine tuned and automated
Those who want to reproduce something as this need to understand, bell siphon . The methods are simple . It can be made as a intermittent ( several times a day) watering system. The Fish pond is always at a lower elevation . The plants and most plumbing are at a higher level.
Super
Great 😍😍😍
SuperEffort
Good work
Very informative
For a terrace of 1000 sqft what will be the capital cost & how much vegetables and fish can we get for a week or month
Per sft the cost will be starting from ₹200 and goes on depending on the type of system and throughput.
👏🏻ലിജി 👌
I would like to visit the sites. I would love to replicate this here in Meghalaya, with your permission of course
Ligi 👌
Good
Can we contact her for guidance?
Kerala❤❤ Pinarayi Vijayan 🔥🔥🚩🚩
So the hurdles are largely bureaucratic. Hopefully this problem will resolve soon.

Good 👌👌👍 kindly confirm the fiber tank cost.. anybody have second hand fiber tanks for sale..
but all equipment need electricity and pvc pipe plastic that is waste
Use solar panels. Replace pvc with a safer type of pipe.
Even without these are 10 times less poisonous than the vegetable coming out of states like Tamilnadu
Good morning
👏🏻👏🏻👍
Can I get the contact number of the institute
I do hydroponics
Unfortunately you have to take the fish out of their natural habitat (lakes and ponds). Does that make it too costly?
Initail setup cost is there but using 2nd hand stuff makes it really cost effective.
It is commercially viable, although it requires skilled labour and basic knowledge.
I would suggest a video by Adam Ragusea titled: Why farmed fish isn't always more sustainable than wild (but definitely sometimes is)
good
