The presence and transformations of nitrogen (N) in the environment depend on a variety environmental factors but are also strongly influenced by anthropogenic activities such as modern agriculture. Understanding N within context agricultural systems is crucial for efficient use thereof. aim this study was to investigate changes concentration forms (ammonium, nitrite, nitrate organic N) an aqua...

In classical aquaponics (coupled aquaponic systems, 1-loop systems) the production of fish in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and plants in hydroponics are combined in a single loop, entailing systemic compromises on the optimal production parameters (e.g. pH). Recently presented decoupled aquaponics (2-loop systems) have been awarded for eliminating major bottlenecks. In a pilot study,...

Abstract Fish cultivation is one of the ways to increase productivity fishery technology development. Technology innovation in Indonesia has existed since long ago, especially Lampung province. The technological development trout makes business more effective, efficient, economical, highly competitive, and environmentally friendly. This research aimed identify plus value fish that economic valu...

This paper reports the results of the first study of an aquaponic system for Pangasianodon hypophthalmus production that uses Lactuca sativa L. (lettuce) and Cichorium intybus L. rubifolium group (red chicory) intercropping in the hydroponic section. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences, Wädenswil, Switzerland, using nine small-scale aquaponi...
