Hydroponic and Aquaponics Containers System in the UAE
Innovation in agriculture has been
on the increase a dire need in the face of growing threat from global climate
changes to the environment with the consequent scarcity of food stock for the
burgeoning world population. Studpac has been at the forefront of meeting this
challenge and has a world class established aquaponics and hydroponic
containers system in the UAE. Studpac is an energetic company with the
latest generation IV hydroponic container system based farming repurposed from
shipping containers for fresh vegetable and fish farming.
Apart from increasing the quality
and yield of produce, hydroponics farm
greenhouses are more efficient in water conservation which is a big plus for
the UAE and region and also gives a much larger growing season. Apart from
increasing the rich availability of farm produce in the region the adaptation
to hydrophobic container system has increased manifold from 2009 to 2017.
Aquaculture essentially means
raising Fish in Water and hydroponic means raising vegetables in water. So
Aquaponics combines these two to create an Aquaponics
Farming System. Hydroponics by itself requires expensive nutrients for
growing and feeding the plants which can be produced from the re-circulating
excess nutrients aquaculture from the fish and aquatic waste disposal. Thus
this re-circulating aquaculture and the hydroponic system make a sustainable
efficient system.
The system works as follows: Water
is pumped up from the fish tank into the grow bed. The water trickles down
through the media, past the roots of the leafy plants before draining back into
the fish tanks. The plants feed on the extracted nutrients they require to grow
and also cleaning the water of the fish to grow. The bacteria in the grow beds
comprise gravel, clay pebbles and forms on floating rafts on the water surface.
There are a number of Different
systems from Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) to large organic Farms to portable
Hydroponic containers system, which are housed inside an insulated shipping
container and includes everything needed to grow fresh produce, giving Studpac
customers the flexibility of location. It uses and aquaponics enriched water
supply for the farming of vegetables like lettuce, etc.
Containers System are portable and
can be located close to the consumers and also give the experience of growing
on site round the year eliminating the long supply chain. It gives virtually
from “farm to the Table” experience and one of the most prolific and fastest
growing presences in the hydroponic and Aquaponic container business are Studpac.
