The Margaret River Region is renowned for its wine and BYAP was commissioned to install a sytem for Mick and Ros in their state of the art custom built greenhouse which has just been completed.

This tells to story
The greenhouse is climate controlled and the system is capable of dropping 20 degrees if need, unfortunately the fans are not yet connected so we just soldiered on.

Ros took pity on us and brought us an electric fan to create some air flow, that was the good news, however, it was not long before there was a power failure and which lasted for about 3 hours.

It was all worth it at the end of the day as we overlooked the valley of vineyards and felt the cool breeze blowing up the valley as we rested on the balcony sampling the organic wines

Not really,SA. They have been interested for a couple of years and have been really keen to grow their own food and organic hydroponics. It will be great to follow their progress with the system, which has a lot of potential including state of the art electronicall controlled monitoring for temperature and nutrient levels.
Margaret River is about 350km soth of Perth and like the whole of Australia has water issues. Many people are becoming more environmetnally aware and want to do their bit to reduce water use. Aquaponics is certainly one way to do that as well as have fish on the back door step.

Oh yeah. The whole system only took up 1/2 of a quarter of the greenhouse. Awesome! Room for expansion.
