Aquaponics

26th January 2016 | Posted in Nigel's Blog

The team have sponsored the building of an Acquaponics farm.  This looks a great idea and could fit into the Sierra Leone plan.  We have an expert from Thailand leading the installation. Basically there are 3 types here but they all depend on a symbiotic relationship of fish and plants.  The opportunity to grow quality fruit and vegetables and sell the fast breeding Tapioca fish has great business potential, though will take a few months to get fully up and running.  It also provides jobs for those who were forcibly evicted from slums several years ago and live in the “Blue tarp Community”

The team had quite a day, working hard on the site, considering what it means to be rich and realizing that the average wage in the UK makes you in the top 1% of worlds earners and a visit to the Killing Fields providing insight to a nation that killed 3 out of 8 million of its citizens in a couple of years and consequently has relatively few older people.
