摘要：
A shipping container that includes a greenhouse mounted above an aqueous tank or tanks. Aquaponics fruits and vegetables grow in greenhouse in vertical and horizontal grow systems, while fish are grown in the tanks. Water flows between all plants and fish with no soil. The system is run by a computer automation system which operates on data obtained by various sensors and control components that include automated control valves, fish feeders, temperature and water flow measurements. The container can be operated from an established grid or can run off-grid with solar or other renewable energy sources. Part of the water needed for the system can be collected from rainfall. All necessary components except for the water, fish and plant seedlings are delivered in the shipping container.
