The farm grows vegetables on about 400 m2 and can produce up to 12 tonnes of fish a year. The nutrient-rich wastewater from the fish farm is fed to the plants, while the waste heat from the greenhouse is used to heat the fish system.
The fish are sold from the farm’s premises in Vienna, online and in well-known restaurants and cafés. Customers appreciate the freshness and regionality of the products, as well as the quality: the fish fillet is produced entirely without pharmaceuticals, as these would be harmful to the vegetables, while the vegetables are produced without any pesticides or other substances which would be harmful to the fish.
