Nelson and Pade, Inc. offers proven  aquaponic (organic hydroponic) systems for all applications including: hobby, education, commercial and research.  In addition, they author, publish and sell books, videos, training materials and school curriculums on aquaponics and hydroponics.  Rebecca Nelson and John Pade of Nelson and Pade, Inc., consult and are invited to speak at conferences worldwide. With over 20 years in this industry, soilless agriculture is their business and their passion. 

By purchasing one of Nelson and Pade, Inc.'s Aquaponic Systems, you will avoid the high costs and problems associated with untested systems and home-built efforts.  They offer a diverse mix of systems to meet a variety of budget and space requirements.

All of the aquaponic systems offered by Nelson and Pade, Inc. are based on many years of research, hands-on development and application.  In addition, Nelson and Pade, Inc., draws on the research done at Universities world wide that focuses on aquaponics technology.  Most notably, research done at the Agriculture Experiment Station, University of the Virgin Islands, St. Croix (UVI) has contributed to the refinement of this system.   UVI has earned worldwide recognition for their contributions to aquaponics which include developing specific components, designs, ratios, and methods.

Nelson and Pade, Inc. strives to offer manageable, functional aquaponic systems based on this proven technology.  The system is comprised of individual components that have been sourced through a variety of manufacturers.  Each component has been specifically chosen to meet the system needs based on size, function and durability.

An aquaponic system is a complex adaptive system which is made up of multiple components. Altering the input, function or size of any one component will affect the outcome or behavior of the system as a whole.  It is important to keep this concept in mind when considering changes to any factor, variable or component of the system.

The detailed assembly and operation manuals and technical support for system installation are key components that contribute to the successful operation of these systems.
