@ JCO: Done! I'm afraid,however,that you guys haven't even heard of the place on the map I'm from. Unfortunately,I'm pretty sure no one is doing AP in a thousand mile radius...

@ badflash and rfeiller: In general what I need is the advantages of AP expressed in numbers,over Hydroponics,RAS and conventional farming methods,labor efficiency,yield,environmental benefits etc. I realize how important experience is,but If the project gets approved,I'll hire some professional personnel to help me figure out how it all works. As mentioned-there's absolutely no one around that has a complete know-how in Aquaponics.

@ urbanfarmer: Thanks,that's extremely nice of you,but it's not really a business plan yet,it's more of a sales pitch!
