SCALABLE BIOLOGICAL FARMING
We are Sub-Saharan Africa’s leading vertically-integrated aquaponics group.
We specialise in operating and building intensive, environmentally-conscious aquaponics solutions.
We’re water-wise, organic-equivalent, zero-discharge, natural fertiliser-using food producers.
Why Integrated Aquaculture Group
-
We have a proven farming method, industry knowledge, and the experience to build, develop, manage and support or operate multiple farms in Africa.
-
We provide education, consulting, construction, and management of farms in the aquaponics industry, as well as the farming, marketing, distribution and sales of agricultural produce.
-
Our methodology enables the sustainable production of tilapia, a fresh-water, light-fleshed, nutritious fish.
-
By using fish waste to generate nutrient-rich liquid fertiliser, we are able to grow a wide range of leafy vegetables in a controlled, enclosed environment, from as little as 1 hectare.
-
When developing farms for third-parties, we structure the commercial and operational relationship that ensures IAG's ongoing involvement. This results in well-managed, successful businesses that are low-risk operations.
