Healthy food is the basic requirement of our body as it is highly important as it helps in the proper growth of our body. But getting totally natural and fresh food has become a scarcity these days as use of fertilizers and pesticides has become a part of farming culture. Thus, lot of people likes to grow vegetables and fruits in their house, but not all of us have this time, energy or resources. Moreover it is a lengthy process which needs a constant attention. But that doesn’t fulfill your requirement of fresh and naturally clean food; it can be done easily if you have knowledge of Aquaponic Farming. This farming style is a mixture of aquaculture and hydroponic where you can grow vegetables and fish at a same time to fulfill the nutrition requirement of your body. From the time Aquaponics practice has came into existence it has been widely appreciated in every part of the world. And the best part is that it has the benefits of both aquaculture and hydroponic. Now let us give you a brief about aquaculture and hydroponic, firstly aquaculture or we can say aqua-farming is farming of aquatic animals like fish, crustaceans, molluscs and aquatic plants under controlled man made conditions in salt or fresh water. It is totally different from commercial fishing because it is a part of agriculture. Also the owners of aqua farms are involved for the betterment and growth of aqua farming. After that comes hydroponic which is the subset of hydro-culture? In hydroponic plants are grown in water using mineral nutrient solutions, without the help of soil. Lot of plants is grown with their roots in the mineral solution. The basic advantage of hydroponic is that it don't need soil fir it growth as it consumes minerals nutrients from water in the form of inorganic ions. Thus one can say that aqua-farming and hydroponic framing are the best source of fresh and clean food and Aquaponics is the mixture of both which has goodness of both. It is much more advanced and better than organic farming. It is totally hygienic and easy to control. There is no need of using pesticides and fertilizers in aquaponics farming which give us a real and naturally grown food. Moreover in aquaponics farming both the plants and fish favors each other and grow in much better way. Firstly the fish gives the plants nutrient rich water and in return plant keeps the water clean by absorbing the dump of fish. Thus all the products of aquaponics farming are organic products with a high number of health benefits.
