Production of barramundi and certified organic vegetables in a zero-effluent, energy-efficient glasshouse

Urban Ecological Systems Australia (UESA) has negotiated three potential joint venture partnership opportunities pending the successful demonstration of a commercial-scale prototype of their already technically proven integrated vegetable and aquaculture production glasshouse.

The project will show that the significant savings in cost of production, energy and water use of the system can be achieved at commercial scale, while maintaining a high level of environmental performance. The key steps are to build the commercial-scale prototype, fine tune the technology and trial processes in order to demonstrate commercial viability, and consolidate current expressions of interest from other potential JV partners.
