The document discusses the ANNIE project, which aims to promote aquaponics education across Europe. The project involves partnerships between schools and organizations in multiple countries. It seeks to teach students about aquaponics systems, which combine aquaculture and hydroponics to grow fish and plants in a symbiotic environment. The project has produced educational materials on aquaponics and held workshops to train teachers and students on setting up aquaponics systems.

ANNIE - Ton Stok, project leader 4 What is Aquaponics? Aquaculture + Hydroponics= Aquaponics
ANNIE - Ton Stok, project leader 5
Aquaponics Combination of Aquaculture en Hydroponics
ANNIE - Ton Stok, project leader 6
Hydroponics and aquaponics Hydroponics = breeding without soil
Substrate or without substrate
Circular use of water
Nutrients via the water.
ANNIE - Ton Stok, project leader 7
Aquaculture and aquaponics Aquaculture = breeding of aquatic organisms , fish, shellfish, crustaceans and algae and seaweed
ANNIE - Ton Stok, project leader 8
Sustainable benefits of growing in aquaponics • High yield, short cultivation time • Less plant diseases • Biological control • Urbanisation, less transport • Efficiency • Circulair water use; save up to 90% • Water footprint & Carbon footptint
ANNIE - Ton Stok, project leader 9
Aquaponics systems with substrate Stone wool, clay granules, cocos Ebb and flood system
ANNIE - Ton Stok, project leader 10
Crops and aquaponics e.g. • Varieties of lettuce • Mint/ basil • Paksoi • Broccoli • Pepers • Tomato • Cucumber • Eggplant • Zucchini
