Aquaculture Insights: Fish, Plants, and Sustainable Farming

The video explores aquaculture, focusing on aquaponics, where fish and plants grow symbiotically. It explains the process of using fish waste as plant fertilizer and highlights the technology used in greenhouses to optimize plant growth. The video also covers the types of fish used, their diet, and the benefits of aquaponics over traditional soil planting.
