Why This Project Matters

Lack of space and high feed costs limit fish and vegetable farming in PNG. This project uses Biofloc technology to recycle fish waste into natural food and fertilizer, growing tilapia/prawns and watercress in one compact, high-yield system. It’s farming for the future.

Impact highlights:

• Families produce fish and vegetables year-round in small spaces.

• Cuts feed costs by 30% using in-tank natural food production.

• Youth engaged in high-tech, sustainable food production.
