Sustainability
The process recycles 98% of the water and there is no leakage of nutrients into nearby areas. There is no need for arable land and the aquafarm can transform marginal, non-arable land into productive areas. There is no conflict with other crops and the system is said to be carbon neutral. Aquafarms are normally located around the equator for optimal growing conditions. Parabel works closely with local governments interested in providing work opportunities and infrastructure for low income areas. The farms have been commercially
validated in Asia, Africa and North and South America.
