As the world’s population increases the demand for food expands. The production of food depends upon the availability of natural resources while currently the consumption rate exceeds the regeneration rate. Thus to maintain a balanced paradigm, sound cropping methods are needed, where comes aquaponics. [1] Aquaponics is the integration of aquaculture with hydroponics which mainly focuses on increasing the sustainability of indoor and outdoor fish farming along with the sustainability of agriculture with waste water bio-filtration by plants. It also provides us the possibility to increase the economic efficiency via organic farming with increased yield and preventing soil borne diseases as it with soilless method of farming.
