Home aquaponics: organic farming made easy with BasicFarm 1.0

Today we would like to introduce you to the BasicFarm 1.0 production technology unit – a home aquaponics system designed for families and smaller communities. Aquaponic farming is a method that is the key to sustainable agriculture of the future. You can try BasicFarm in your own home!

Why is aquaponics so promising? It combines fish farming and plant cultivation into one interconnected system. The waste substances from fish farming serve as nutrients for the plants, which in turn purify the water for the fish. This creates a self-sufficient and ecological cycle that saves water and fertilizer.

But how do you get started with aquaponics at home if you have no experience? The BasicFarm is just the thing for you – a compact production system with which anyone can farm sustainably. Simply install the system, plant the plants and fish and you can harvest fresh vegetables and fish all year round!

What makes BasicFarm 1.0 exciting?

Many people would like to eat healthy and grow their own food, but are discouraged by lack of space, time and experience. BasicFarm elegantly solves these obstacles:

• It only takes up a few square metres, so it fits on a balcony or in the basement
• It has automated operation, so it only takes a few minutes a day to operate
• It comes with detailed instructions so even complete beginners can get to grips with it

Imagine having fresh vegetables of the highest quality (without pesticides, preservatives or unnecessary transportation) and healthy fresh fish on hand all year round. What a great motivation to embark on your own little aquaponic adventure!

What can you grow in BasicFarm 1.0?

A wide range of crops thrive in BasicFarm growing tunnels:

• Leafy vegetables: lettuce, spinach, arugula, field lettuce.
• Herbs: basil, chives, parsley, coriander
• Fruiting vegetables: tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, zucchini
• Root vegetables: radishes, radishes, turnips

In tanks, you can also keep undemanding species of freshwater fish such as sturgeon or tilapia. Their biological waste benefits the plants and they also grow to eating size. You simply can’t get fresher and tastier fish than those from your own farming.

How does BasicFarm 1.0 work in practice?

BasicFarm consists of two main parts – a growing tunnel for plants and a tank for fish. Water with biological waste from the fish is pumped through a filter into the growing tunnel, where it flows continuously. There, this nutrient solution is further filtered and used by the plants. The purified water is returned to the fish and the cycle repeats itself over and over again.

The entire system is only a few square meters in size, so it doesn’t take up much space. Ideally, it should be placed in a greenhouse or heated room so that both plants and fish have optimal conditions even in the winter months. Or you can place the BasicFarm in the garden and keep it running during the seasonal months (spring to autumn). You only need one day to get it up and running – it’s not rocket science!

Once you get BasicFarm up and running, you’ll be amazed at how little work and input it requires. The plants don’t need any fertilizer and the fish are usually fed once a day. Water and energy consumption is minimal. You can harvest fresh crops continuously throughout the year.
