<description><![CDATA[Many of use consider growing vegetables in our backyard a process that uses soil and an abundance of water. This is not the case with aquaponics. This type of agriculture combines aquaculture and hydroponics. This is a symbiotic system which uses the waste water of marine animals to provide nutrients to plants in a grow tank. The roots of the plants are set in a grow bed and are provided water and nutrients from a tank containing fish such as trout or tilapia. The plants cleanse the water water by using up the waste created by the aquatic life. This water is then sent back to the fish tank. This is a closed loop system ans wastes very little water. The fertilization needed for the plants is provided by the waste water created in the fish tank. Water will have to added because of evaporation, but this will much less when compared to a soil based agriculture system]]></description>
