Aquaponics:Promoting sustainable & organic urban farming for the our future Liholiho STEM RTs
The ability to meet our present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs The Hawai‘i State Plan is not the end, it is a beginning. It is the beginning of us finally taking control of our destiny. It will serve notice that we know what is good for this State, what is proper and what is achievable.

Fish meal • Azola and duckweed • Composting worms • Labor and building materials for construction • Electricity • Water • Fertilizers • Pesticides • Labor to plant and harvest • Labor to wash, pack and deliver Requirements for an Aquaponics System
Creating an aquaponics system that is feasible in any environment.
An aquaponics system design depends on many factors and needs.
Azola & Duckweed are the building blocks of a sustainable system.
Composting illustrates how everythingis used and nothing is wasted.
Small scale system Large scale system Aquaponics to fit our needs.
Traditional fishpond Circular pond
Prototype Tomato Greenhouse Upgraded Tomato Greenhouse Design We are constantly looking for more efficient ways to increase our productivity.
Raising tomatoes has involved more than just basic farming knowledge. It has become a STEM learning experience in understanding ratio & proportion, force, gravity, slope, climate control, volume, distance, and structural design. Aquaponics going high-tech
