Abstract

The aquaponics is a multi-trophic system that combines recirculation elements from the aquaculture and hydroponics. The objective of this work is to evaluate the production of two aquaponics systems for the sustainable development of the Manabí rural zones. The first one built was the floating root in a 2:1 proportion (two plants every one fish), so we cultivate 60 plants of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and 30 tilapia (Oreochromis sp). The second one was a nutrients layer (NFT), with a 1:1 proportion, we cultivate lettuce and celery (Apium graveolens) (15 plant of each one) and 30 tilapia from the Nile (Oreochromis niloticus). Analysis of the physiochemical parameters of the water was made on both systems, obtaining normal levels for the food development (color, ph, nitrates, ammonium, calcium, and carbonate hardness) the rest of parameters were out of the normal range; never the less, we achieved a 100% survival of the cultivate products. We calculate de growing rate (TC) of lettuce and tilapia. We demonstrate that aquaponics systems contribute to the sustainable production.
