Mohamed Al Nuaimi has developed an agroponic system in Sharjah that integrates crop cultivation with fish rearing, optimizing water usage to 10-20% of traditional farming methods. The system utilizes artificial intelligence and sensors for monitoring and is designed to be adaptable for arid regions, potentially benefiting areas like Arizona.
Operating on a 1,000 square meter site, the system has yielded diverse crops, including basmati rice, and supports year-round production. It features a closed-loop water system that processes fish waste into nutrients for plants, with excess water used for palm irrigation.
The setup can function off-grid with solar power and includes a chicken coop for additional nutrient recycling. Al Nuaimi holds a US patent for his invention, which he believes could enhance food security and meet the demand for locally grown produce in the UAE.
