Aquaculture is the production of aquatic organisms such as fish, crustaceans, mollusks, aquatic plants, and algae for food and other purposes.
When implemented into a permaculture system a controlled aquaculture system can work to provide benefits for many parts of the design.
Some examples would be; fish for food, fish waste for plant nutrients, and if in the form of small backyard ponds, the attraction of beneficial wildlife that can provide pest control and pollination.
