Here is the Project Overview:
You Aqua Know
How can we produce locally sourced high quality foods in a way that is eco-friendly? The Knott County Central Agricultural classes will produce tilapia and fresh vegetables by using a recirculating aquaponics system. We already have obtain an aquaculture tank and are currently producing tilapia. We would like to expand our production to include fresh vegetables. In order to do this, we need hydroponic equipment.
During this project, students will install, operate, maintain, and monitor the entire system. Students will also harvest the finish products. We are currently producing fish, and we would like to produce vegetables by the spring 2016.
