Due to the above-mentioned factors, the global aquaponics market is expected to register considerable growth during the forecast period (2020—2030). Aquaponics is defined as a system that integrates aquaculture (farming of aquatic animals such as fish, prawns, and snails in tanks) with hydroponics (the cultivation of plants in water) in a symbiotic environment where the water from the aquaculture system is supplied to the hydroponic system, wherein, the by-products are broken down into nitrates and laterconsumed as nutrients by the plants.  

One of the biggest advantages of the aquaponic system over the traditional farming methods is that it allows a faster production of plants, on account of the availability of the naturally fortified water from the fish tank. Moreover, an aquaponic system doesn’t require fertile land for plant cultivation and this farming technique can be easily done on gravel, rocky, or sand surfaces.

In addition to this, the agricultural yield produced in this farming system is healthier for the human body as it doesn’t consist of pesticides and chemical fertilizers.  

There are multiple types of aquaponic systems used throughout the world— nutrient film technique (NFT), media-filled beds, and deep-water culture. Out of these, the media-filled beds recorded the highest utilization in 2019. This is mainly attributed to the fact that the media-filled beds have a very simple form and are thus, highly sought after all over the world over the other systems. In addition to this, in the media-filled beds, the plant roots are periodically exposed to air, which plays a major role in preventing waterlogging. 

Therefore, it can be said without any hesitation that the popularity of aquaponics systems will skyrocket throughout the world in the forthcoming years, mainly because of the depleting freshwater reserves and rising need for environmental friendly and sustainable farming techniques across the world.
