Detailed Description

The project is aimed at studying aquaponics, implementing it in urban context and promoting the technology through this urban home product. The urban population has less access and opportunity to farming due to space, resources and time constraints. The Aquaponics technology has been in existence for over the last 3 decades, yet it is not so common to the masses. In a developing country like India, where the balance between the rural and urban population, is rapidly shifting towards the latter, issues like food insecurity becomes a major concern. Urban farming is the one answer to solve this problem and it takes conscious effort for that. The product could be used as a serious farming as well as a hobby/destressing element in the urban homes.
