7 cutting-edge offshore aquaculture innovations and designs

Smart Floating Farms

The concept put forth by Smart Floating Farms is one that encourages and embodies “a highly productive floating ecosystem.” The project involves several layers – green energy production facilities will be used to power and maintain hydroponics farms, with waste byproducts from the crops feeding the fish being harvested on the lower levels of the ecosystem enterprise. In turn, waste byproducts from the fish will be used as fertilizer for the crops. These farms can be located near to many mega-cities or dense populated areas with a physical water access, including places like New York, Chicago and Seattle in the United States; Tokyo, Japan; and Istanbul, Turkey.
