Aquaponics is a sustainable system for producing food that combines hydroponics (growing plants in water) with aquaculture. Toxins and waste products that accumulate in the water during aquaculture are filtered out by plants, which in turn use the waste products as nutrients. The cleansed water returns to the aquatic livestock’s tank and the system begins again. This type of recirculating aquaculture system reduces or eliminates the need for antibiotics and chemicals to control disease in captive fish populations.

The Division of Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences, and the Division of Mathematics and Sciences at Kentucky State University offer a Master of Science Degree in Aquaculture/Aquatic Sciences. Aquaculture is the rearing of aquatic organisms under controlled or semi-controlled conditions.
