So, you have done your surface pond which has now collected 100,000 liters of water. How do you use this water to make a profit?
-
Integrated fish and vegetable farming - keep fish in your pond, and the water becomes nutrient-rich. When you use this to grow vegetables, the plants emerge vibrant and healthy due to the rich nutrients.
-
Aquaponics - this is an advanced way of growing high-value crops such as broccoli, strawberries, and lettuce, in the same system you use to keep fish. It mimics nature, in which plants benefit from the nutrients that fish deposit in the water, and the fish nibble on the roots of the plants.
-
Sport fishing - since the pond uses a very small area, you can use it to bring sport fishing to urban area; Let people pay to catch that fish for supper.
What other ideas do you have?
