7 1 FERTILIZER – 7.21 – HOW TO MAKE ORGANIC FERTILIZER
– All Natural
Making your own natural organic homemade fertilizer is both easy & cheap. It often uses components you already have around the farm. Organic material from leftover food and grass clippings to organic DIY fertilizers made from plant or animal remains.
Plant-based fertilizers include:
Compost, Cottonseed meal, Soybean, Kelp, Seaweed
Wood ash uses like
these, Alfalfa meal
fertilizer
Several organic materials serve as excellent sources of nitrogen for use as
soil supplement and fertilizer, such as poultry, horses and especially cattle
manure. However, atmospheric nitrogen is the largest source of soil nitrogen
content and is introduced into the soil by precipitation, commercial
fertilizers and decomposed cover crops. Legumes are excellent sources of
nitrogen; First, they are the only plants capable of taking nitrogen from the
air and releasing their nitrogen content to the soil as they decompose. Soil
composition varies so always take a soil sample to determine the best method
when making your own nitrogen fertilizer.

7 1 FERTILIZER – 7.3.1 – FROM FISHPOND for AQUAPONIC
How IBC tanks make aquarium tomatoes possible »
Tomatoes or other vegetables from the aquarium -
this topic should raise questioning looks in many people. The thought isn't
even that far-fetched. The aquaponic process developed in the United States in
1985 makes it possible and combines tomato and fish farming. Within a
circulatory system, fish ensure that the plants have an optimal nutrient
content and, conversely, are supplied with good water quality. The technology
behind it is simple and with the help of an IBC tank (intermediate bulk
container) you can build your own aquaponic system.
The basic principle of an aquaponic system
Tomatoes and fish don't just go well together on
the menu. A symbiosis can already be created during rearing. The composition
aquaponics is derived from the terms aquaculture and hydroponics. While the
latter refers to the cultivation of plants in inorganic substrates, aquaculture
is the cultivation of fish in open tanks. Thanks to their design and large
capacity, IBCs are suitable for providing fish with sufficient habitat. The
movement of water, which supplies oxygen and removes excretions, is
particularly important for living beings
The basic principle of the system is that algae
and fish deposits are fed to plants that clean the returning water with
bacterial cultures. The fish farm gets faecal-free water.
Do-it-yourself offers these advantages
• productive fish and plant breeding in a
circulatory system
• low-cost building with IBCs
• low water requirement
• no additional fertilizer
• System is always expandable

Jinsi mizinga ya IBC inavyofanya nyanya za aquarium iwezekanavyo »
Nyanya au mboga nyingine kutoka kwa aquarium -
mada hii inapaswa kuinua kuonekana kwa maswali kwa watu wengi. Wazo hata sio
mbali sana. Mchakato wa aquaponic uliotengenezwa nchini Marekani mwaka wa 1985
hufanya iwezekanavyo na unachanganya kilimo cha nyanya na samaki. Ndani ya
mfumo wa mzunguko wa damu, samaki huhakikisha kwamba mimea ina maudhui bora ya
virutubisho na, kinyume chake, hutolewa kwa ubora mzuri wa maji. Teknolojia
nyuma yake ni rahisi na kwa msaada wa tank ya IBC (chombo cha kati cha wingi)
unaweza kujenga mfumo wako wa aquaponic.
Kanuni ya msingi ya mfumo wa aquaponic
Nyanya na samaki haziendani vizuri tu kwenye
menyu. Symbiosis inaweza tayari kuundwa wakati wa ufugaji. Utungaji wa
aquaponics unatokana na maneno ya ufugaji wa samaki na hydroponics. Ingawa
mwisho unahusu kilimo cha mimea katika substrates isokaboni, ufugaji wa samaki
ni kilimo cha samaki katika mizinga wazi. Shukrani kwa muundo wao na uwezo
mkubwa, IBC zinafaa kwa kutoa samaki wenye makazi ya kutosha. Harakati ya maji,
ambayo hutoa oksijeni na kuondosha excretions, ni muhimu hasa kwa viumbe hai
Kanuni ya msingi ya mfumo ni kwamba mwani na
amana za samaki hulishwa kwa mimea ambayo husafisha maji yanayorudi na tamaduni
za bakteria. Shamba la samaki hupata maji yasiyo na kinyesi.
Fanya mwenyewe hutoa faida hizi
• samaki wenye tija na ufugaji wa mimea katika
mfumo wa mzunguko wa damu
• jengo la gharama ya chini na IBCs
• mahitaji ya chini ya maji
• hakuna mbolea ya ziada
• Mfumo unaweza kupanuka kila wakati

7 1 FERTILIZER – 7.3.2 – FISH PROMOTE PLANT
GROWTH
Natural cycle promotes plant growth
If you are toying with the idea of building an
aquaponic system yourself, you are choosing an ecologically valuable route. Tomatoes,
cucumbers, salads and fish are available in almost every supermarket. However,
if you question the path from rearing to the end product on the shelf, one
thing quickly becomes clear: production and transport require a high level of
logistical effort, which has a heavy impact on the environment. This business
is only profitable if as many products as possible reach the consumer.
While seas and lakes around the world are being
fished dry, successful vegetable farming requires a few tools. This includes an
enormous water consumption. The use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides will
also increase yields.
Owners of one or more IBC tanks can counteract
these developments and create a natural cycle. This not only conserves
resources, but also promotes the quality of the products. How such a system can
be built with simple means is explained below.
For beginners: build your own aquaponic system
Since IBC containers have been used in the
industrial sector for many years, there is a high stock. Used IBC tanks are
already available at a low entry-level price and can be functionally expanded
with the appropriate IBC container accessories. Anyone who buys used should
ensure the suitability of the tank.

7 1 MBOLEA – 7.3.2 – SAMAKI HUKUZA UKUAJI WA
MIMEA
Mzunguko wa asili unakuza ukuaji wa mimea
Ikiwa unacheza na wazo la kujenga mfumo wa aquaponic mwenyewe, unachagua njia ya thamani ya kiikolojia. Nyanya, matango, saladi na samaki zinapatikana karibu kila maduka makubwa. Hata hivyo, ikiwa unauliza njia kutoka kwa ufugaji hadi bidhaa ya mwisho kwenye rafu, jambo moja huwa wazi haraka: uzalishaji na usafiri unahitaji kiwango cha juu cha jitihada za vifaa, ambazo zina athari kubwa kwa mazingira. Biashara hii ina faida tu ikiwa bidhaa nyingi iwezekanavyo zitamfikia mlaji.
Wakati bahari na maziwa kote ulimwenguni
yanavuliwa kavu, kilimo cha mboga kwa mafanikio kinahitaji zana chache. Hii ni
pamoja na matumizi makubwa ya maji. Matumizi ya mbolea za kemikali na
viuatilifu pia yataongeza mavuno.
Wamiliki wa tanki moja au zaidi za IBC wanaweza
kukabiliana na maendeleo haya na kuunda mzunguko wa asili. Hii sio tu kuhifadhi
rasilimali, lakini pia inakuza ubora wa bidhaa. Jinsi mfumo huo unaweza
kujengwa kwa njia rahisi ni ilivyoelezwa hapa chini.
Kwa Kompyuta: jenga mfumo wako wa aquaponic
Kwa kuwa vyombo vya IBC vimetumika katika sekta
ya viwanda kwa miaka mingi, kuna hisa kubwa. Mizinga ya IBC iliyotumika tayari
inapatikana kwa bei ya chini na inaweza kupanuliwa kiutendaji kwa vifaa
vinavyofaa vya kontena za IBC. Mtu yeyote anayenunua kutumika anapaswa
kuhakikisha kufaa kwa tank.

Lid as a plant bed
To obtain
the two required parts, the upper part of the water tank must be cut off with a
jigsaw or similar. A height of about 25 centimetres is sufficient for
hydroponics (e.g. expanded clay). Ideally, the downward-facing filling opening
should be provided with a cover filter so that the substrate is not washed out.
After completion, a suitable pipe runs from there back to the lower tank or
into other beds or containers, where the circulation pump is located.
A stand that is used separately offers the plant bed an elevated position with the comfort of a raised bed, which also promotes water drainage. Another alternative is to install a suction fitting for an external pump.
Raise
fish in the container
The heart
of the DIY aquaponics is the IBC container, which as a standard version still
holds a good 1000 litres for the irrigation technology including fish farming.
The stopcock can be replaced with a hose adapter that ensures water return.
Threaded and clamp fittings round off the portfolio, which makes it possible to install additional inlets and outlets. Here, too, the installation of filters ensures the necessary water quality and retains coarser particles.
The right fish
The type
of fish has a significant influence on the later yield. Tilapia, which belong
to the cichlid family, are suitable for rearing. The colloquial name
"tomato fish" emerged from research, as it has ideal prerequisites
for unproblematic breeding in an aquaponic system. Tilapia are robust and fully
grown after a short time. They spawn comparatively often and thus secure their
own stock. In addition, they do not need any separately fed feed, because
vegetable residues are sufficient for their food intake.
Alternatively, African predatory catfish are also suitable for breeding in IBC containers. Due to their high content of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, they are suitable for use as food fish, just like tomato fish. The biggest challenge in fish farming is the water temperature, as both species are warm-water fish.

Kifuniko kama kitanda cha mmea
Ili
kupata sehemu mbili zinazohitajika, sehemu ya juu ya tank ya maji lazima ikatwe
na jigsaw au sawa. Urefu wa takriban sentimita 25 unatosha kwa hidroponics
(k.m. udongo uliopanuliwa). Kwa hakika, ufunguzi wa kujaza unaoelekea chini
unapaswa kutolewa na chujio cha kifuniko ili substrate isioshwe. Baada ya
kukamilika, bomba linalofaa linatoka huko nyuma kwenye tank ya chini au kwenye
vitanda vingine au vyombo, ambapo pampu ya mzunguko iko.
Msimamo ambao hutumiwa tofauti hutoa kitanda cha mmea nafasi ya juu na faraja ya kitanda kilichoinuliwa; ambayo pia inakuza mifereji ya maji. Mbadala mwingine ni kufunga kifaa cha kufyonza kwa pampu ya nje.
Panda
samaki kwenye chombo
Moyo wa
aquaponics ya DIY ni chombo cha IBC, ambacho kama toleo la kawaida bado
kinashikilia lita 1000 nzuri kwa teknolojia ya umwagiliaji ikiwa ni pamoja na
ufugaji wa samaki. Stopcock inaweza kubadilishwa na adapta ya hose ambayo
inahakikisha kurudi kwa maji.
Vipimo vilivyo na nyuzi na clamp huzunguka kwingineko, ambayo inafanya uwezekano wa kusakinisha viingilio na maduka ya ziada. Hapa, pia, ufungaji wa filters huhakikisha ubora wa maji muhimu na huhifadhi chembe za coarser.
Samaki wa kulia
Aina ya
samaki ina ushawishi mkubwa juu ya mavuno ya baadaye. Tilapia, ambayo ni ya
familia ya cichlid, inafaa kwa ufugaji. Jina la kawaida "samaki wa
nyanya" liliibuka kutokana na utafiti, kwa kuwa lina sharti bora la
kuzaliana bila shida katika mfumo wa aquaponic. Tilapia ni imara na hukua
kikamilifu baada ya muda mfupi. Wao huzaa mara nyingi kwa kulinganisha na hivyo
huhifadhi hifadhi yao wenyewe. Kwa kuongeza, hawana haja ya kulisha tofauti
tofauti, kwa sababu mabaki ya mboga yanatosha kwa ulaji wao wa chakula.
Vinginevyo,
kambare wa Kiafrika wawindaji pia wanafaa kwa kuzaliana katika vyombo vya IBC.
Kwa sababu ya kiwango cha juu cha protini na asidi ya mafuta ya omega-3,
zinafaa kutumika kama samaki wa chakula, kama samaki wa nyanya. Changamoto
kubwa katika ufugaji wa samaki ni joto la maji, kwani aina zote mbili ni samaki
wa maji ya joto.

7 1 FERTILIZER – 7.3.4 – THE RIGHT TEPARATURE –
AQUAPONIC
The water at the right temperature
The temperatures in the tank should always be adjusted to the habits of the
fish. For rearing warm-water fish, these are between 25° and 34° Celsius. In
the summer months, if you choose the right location in the greenhouse, a water
tank heats up quickly and reaches ideal temperatures. However, these should be
guaranteed all year round so that fish farming can be successful in the long
term. In addition, fish and plants benefit from constant water temperatures. In
view of the filling volume, conventional aquarium heaters are usually not
sufficient for this.
A container heater specially
developed for IBC tanks can help to solve the problem. It ensures tropical
water temperatures even on cold winter days, so that the operation of the
system is not seasonally limited. Another option would be to cultivate the fish
indoors between October and April. However, care should be taken to lower the
water level in the aquaponic system to such an extent that frost cannot cause
any damage. Although IBC tanks are relatively resistant to weather influences,
this does not necessarily apply to all components of the irrigation system.
Conclusion: do-it-yourself aquaponics
It is always worth trying to combine aquaculture and hydroculture.
Professionally, such systems have been running successfully in many countries
for years. However, Germany is still in the infancy of aquaponics.
For those who like to grow tomatoes, chillies, salads or peppers and also
appreciate the healthy nutrition of edible fish, the aquaponic method offers an
extremely efficient alternative to conventional cultivation.
Cultivation, care and above all the control of the system are part of the
daily routine and should of course give pleasure to the hobby aquaponist.
Anyone who builds with fun, continues their education and has a little feeling
for vegetables and fish can look forward to a high yield density in the long
term and saves costs and travel.

maji kwa joto sahihi
Joto katika tangi linapaswa kubadilishwa kila wakati kulingana na tabia ya
samaki. Kwa ufugaji wa samaki wa maji ya joto, hawa ni kati ya 25° na 34°
Selsiasi. Katika miezi ya majira ya joto, ukichagua eneo sahihi katika chafu,
tank ya maji huwaka haraka na kufikia joto bora. Hata hivyo, haya yanapaswa
kuhakikishiwa mwaka mzima ili ufugaji wa samaki uweze kufanikiwa kwa muda
mrefu. Aidha, samaki na mimea hufaidika na joto la maji mara kwa mara. Kwa
kuzingatia kiasi cha kujaza, hita za kawaida za aquarium kawaida hazitoshi kwa
hili.
Hita ya chombo maalum iliyoundwa
kwa ajili ya mizinga ya IBC inaweza kusaidia kutatua tatizo. Inahakikisha joto
la maji ya kitropiki hata siku za baridi za baridi, ili uendeshaji wa mfumo sio
mdogo wa msimu. Chaguo jingine litakuwa kufuga samaki ndani
ya nyumba kati ya Oktoba na Aprili. Hata hivyo, utunzaji unapaswa kuchukuliwa
ili kupunguza kiwango cha maji katika mfumo wa aquaponic kwa kiasi kwamba
baridi haiwezi kusababisha uharibifu wowote. Ingawa matangi ya IBC ni sugu kwa
athari za hali ya hewa, hii haitumiki kwa vipengele vyote vya mfumo wa
umwagiliaji.
Hitimisho: fanya-wewe-mwenyewe aquaponics
Daima inafaa kujaribu kuchanganya kilimo cha majini na kilimo cha maji.
Kitaalamu, mifumo kama hiyo imekuwa ikifanya kazi kwa mafanikio katika nchi
nyingi kwa miaka. Walakini, Ujerumani bado iko katika uchanga wa aquaponics.
Kwa wale wanaopenda kulima nyanya, pilipili, saladi au pilipili na pia
kuthamini lishe yenye afya ya samaki wanaoliwa, njia ya aquaponic inatoa njia
mbadala ya ufanisi zaidi kwa kilimo cha kawaida.
Kulima, utunzaji na juu ya udhibiti wote wa mfumo ni sehemu ya utaratibu wa
kila siku na lazima bila shaka kutoa radhi kwa hobby aquaponist. Mtu yeyote
anayejenga kwa furaha, anaendelea elimu yake na ana hisia kidogo kwa mboga na
samaki anaweza kutarajia wiani mkubwa wa mavuno kwa muda mrefu na kuokoa
gharama na usafiri.
