My guess is that the commercial growers aren't doing it, yet. Sooner or later it will not be cost prohibitive based on the possible returns that could be gained by tracking such data and doing such research. Lots of possibles here. I know from reading that commercial operations are not that prevalent. It seems that hydroponic commercial operations are much more likely to be the norm. Couple of possible reasons. It may be that the research and known data make it much easier to set up and operate a hydroponics operation. Another reason may be that it is more difficult to keep really large scale aquaponics systems in balance and operating efficiently. Another might be that produce growers are not fish farmers and crossing the line into a new operation may not be attractive. In any case, I am firmly convinced that aquaponics is a viable alternative to either hydropnics or soil gardening. I am also well on my way to believing that there is a future in not only larger scale operations but the infrastructure, including research, hard data, and the equipment and software, to manage large scale operations.
