[24-26 February 2010, Brisbane, Australia]

The world’s first urban aquaponics conference will be held in Brisbane from February 24 to 26, 2010, by the Aquaponics Network Australia (ANA).

Aquaponics is combining fish farming with vegetable and fruit farming. Urban aquaponics is practicing aquaponics on rooftops or inside buildings in “protected” food production using solar energy and recycling of clean urban organic matter.

The conference venue is the Brisbane Technology Park conference centre in Eight Mile Plains, about 20 kilometers from Brisbane airport. The conference will have four main streams as separate, single-day events costing ANA members A$250 each, and non-members $350 each.
