SUMMARY:Science Cafe - Aquaponics\: Whetting Your Appetite for Sustainable Food Production
DESCRIPTION:Jason Licamele\, a PhD candidate in the department of agricultural and biosystems engineering at the University of Arizona will give a short talk titled \"Aquaponics\: Whetting Your Appetite for Sustainable Food Production\" as part of Flandrau\: The UA Science Center's Science Café  lecture series.In his talk\, Licamele will discuss aquaponics - the combination of aquaculture (fish farming) and hydroponics (soilless plant culture) using one infrastructure. He will show us how we can have organic gardening right in our own backyard\, but without the dirt. Since soil isn't required\, aquaponics can be set up in urban areas supplying your household with fish and vegetables\, sent to local markets\, and produced in arid regions with poor soil\, in developing countries\, in rural communities or anywhere else that fresh food is needed. More information about Flandrau\: The UA Science Center and the Science Café is available on the Flandrau Web site and on Facebook. You're also welcome to join the conversation on Twitter.
