Aquaponics
Good system - protein from fish, helps fertilize the plants. All good.
Can the system produce the fish food too? 25% can come from duckweed. Probably need to incorporate nitrogen fixing bacteria.
Plants
Need good candidates. High protein, high fat. But needs to grow quickly and not take up too much space.
Chickpeas or soybeans? Lentils?
Automation
One goal here is continuous production. A traditional farm needs massive equipment because every task is done in a small window. We can gain efficiency with systems that are in continuous use but average out to the same production.
