aquaponics

Yeah, but you need to have a proper business-plan. I do notice some of these farang-owned farms on sale sometimes in SEA
>another dream broken

People I have read about that do make it work, have an angle where they, for example, sell different types of lettuce to fancy restaurants. Providing a good quality product that does not get the clientele sick, is a decent angle.

I build a system once, it doesnt work as good as people claim on the internet.

more like a aeroponics desu senpai

The common problem I see with failed commercial aquaponics is that their overhead is too large which is a problem I can mostly avoid

The main problem that I see is the lack of customers
Aside from restaurants and grocery stores, I can't really compete in a local market with other producers in terms of price

I can't really think of any other major problem

>>2022594
how underwhelming was it and how did it perform compared to geoponics?

>>2022618
we're not in space

>sell different types of lettuce to fancy restaurants.
it seems that most people are stuck on lettuce and soft greens and herbs.
while there is money in this, it is the wrong plan.

>>2022475
OP yes, this is the future (not memeing)
not aquaponics per se, but something similar.

>I can't really compete in a local market with other producers in terms of price
you've the wrong products then, or the wrong marketing.
i will move into this field (so to speak) in 2018. you need to review your plans if they are not working out.

>it seems that most people are stuck on lettuce and soft greens and herbs
I'm actually planning on growing plants like tomatoes, cucumbers and strawberries

>you've the wrong products then, or the wrong marketing.
I was just assuming that I would the same yield as a normal farmer (currently doing small-scale tests on it), he would have a lower overhead than me and could offer lower prices

Set up a fully self sustaining thing with fish that feed the plants and vice versa. Sell the food you generate for whatever you can but sell food contracts to preppers. Say for $x per month they can reserve a portion of food production in a shtf scenario.

>Set up a fully self sustaining thing with fish that feed the plants and vice versa
I actually plan to grow duckweed to feed the fish
Feeding the plants isn't much of a problem since I know someone who is willing to pay me to get rid of chicken manure

>Sell the food you generate for whatever you can but sell food contracts to preppers

What makes this better than just stocking up in their home for a shtf scenario?

>>2023400
Because this stock never runs out

>>2023434
fair enough

I'm in a third world shithole though so I'm not sure if there are a lot of preppers here, but it's still extra money

I'll just probably set up a small website or something
