“…In the present study, the length gain of tilapia was 8.31±0.43 and 8.02±0.21 cm for T 1 and T 2 during the study period respectively. Recorded length gain of tilapia was 5.15±0.2 cm in 90 days in an Aquaponics system where water spinach was cultured (Akter, 2018) and it more or less similar to the present finding. (Islam, 2018) 1.26 ± 0.07 wish pond system 1.30 ± 0.07 cm in wish pond aquaponics system were observe that is more or less similar to the present result.…”

The research was conducted for 120 days from 01 March 2019 to 30 June 2019 at Saver, Doshaid the peri-urban area near Dhaka city. The objective of the study was to assess the growth performances of tilapia and vegetable production in the wish pond and wish pond-aquaponics systems. The initial length and weight of tilapia juvenile (Oreochromis niloticus) of 5.17±0.14 to 5.15±0.12cm and 3.24±0.30 to 3.35±0.13g were stocked at the rate of 200 fish/m 3 pond area in wish pond aquaponics and wish pond system, respectively. The Brinjal, chilli and mint were planted in both wish pond and wish pond-aquaponics systems. A commercial floating pellet feed of 30% protein was fed the fish at the rate of 5% body weight twice daily. Both the wish pond-aquaponics and wish pond waster was aerated with air pump and stones. The wish pond-aquaponics water was filtered through the vegetable media but wish pond water was not such filtration system rather partial water change was done in each month. The survival rate and total production of fish were higher (89.17±3.82%, 34.88±2.22 tons/ha/120 days) in wish pond-aquaponics system than the wish pond system (76.67±2.08, 26.33±0.87 tons/ha/120 days). Moreover, the vegetables production was also found higher in wish pond-aquaponics system (Brinjal 40.97±5.25, Chilli 9.54±0.84 and Mint 12.81±1.22) than the wish pond system (Brinjal 30.58±2.06, Chilli 7.92±0.16 and Mint 10.08±0.29). Water quality and nutrient utilization was comparatively better in wish pond-aquaponics system as the water was filtered by brick lets and plant roots and nutrients utilized by the plants which was absent in wish pond system. Therefore, the wish pond-aquaponics system performed better than the wish pond system and proved the system is environmental friendly and sustainable.

“…FCR values were 0.7 and 1.1 for systems I and II, respectively. Akteret al [33] mentioned that the length and weight percentage gain were 33.81% and 174.06%. It was found that the survival rate and FCR were 98.33% and 1.56, respectively.…”

Aquaponics is an eco-friendly system that integrates soilless cultivation and aquaculture. This study aimed to assess the water quality, hematological and biochemical parameters, and growth performances of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus), as well as Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) yield, reared for 110 days in a newly developed deepwater culture (DWC), as a prototype built in the Upper Egypt Center of Development owned by the Academy of Scientific Research and Technology (ASRT) in Sohag Governorate, Egypt. The experimental work consisted of two DWC systems. Fish (n= 300 with an average weight (18 ± 0.8 g)) were fed daily for five days a week with 2% of the total biomass with a protein feed content (30%). The results showed that water quality parameters were within the optimal range for tilapia culture except for pH. The hematological and biochemical parameters and growth performances were within typical values. The growth and yield of Lettuce were measured through fresh weight, and they were better than in other studies. Aquaponics technology can be used to produce high-quality tilapia and lettuce.

“…Furthermore, in a fishery system, fish waste and feed residue must be cleaned, otherwise, ammonia buildup will occur which can poison the fish. In the aquaponics system, water containing waste is converted by microorganisms into nutrients that are beneficial for plant growth, so that no water and feed residue is wasted, all of which can be reused (Akter et al, 2018;Dauhan et al, 2014). Moreover, the research result of Hu et al, (2015) showed that different plant species in an aquaponics system affect differently in nitrogen transformations primarily due to their root surface area.…”

The government Program Pemanfaatan Lahan (P2L) aims to appeal communities to utilize yards intensively with local resources ensuring household food security. The problem occurring in Dompyong Village, Trenggalek Regency is the lack of community activity in utilizing their yards due to the lack of knowledge and skills. Furthermore, as a highland area, the Dompyong Village community also experiences a problem with the availability of water sources. Therefore, this community service activity was held to introduce and provide training and assistance to the community in fishery and agricultural sectors, namely the aquaponics system in the buckets. This simple aquaponics system required minimal resources and costs but produces fishery as well as agriculture products for household consumption. This aquaponics system in the bucket was expected to support the household food security program in Dompyong Village, increase community participation in the fishery sector, and increase the fulfilment of household nutrition needs.
