Borgmann Aquaponik und Hydroponic offers advice, technology, technical knowledge and the conceptual design of the entire plant from a single source. This is a unique selling point of the company. 

The change from traditional agriculture to aquaponics or hydroponics is a big step for the entrepreneur. It requires a rethink in many aspects and, not least, large investments. However, the costs for the conversion hardly exceed the price of a modern agricultural machine, and the system does not need any oil or have to be inspected by the TÜV.

Here, the company Borgmann Aquaponik Hydroponik offers a new possibility to transform the agricultural business into the twenty-first century. The EU already offers subsidies for this new technology, which makes conversion even more attractive for many interested parties.

The offer includes feasibility studies, advice on the technical implementation, the installation of the systems as well as training in their handling and operation.

Furthermore, we offer calculation of the operating costs, quantification of the risks as well as an amortisation planning for the evaluation of the economic viability on the basis of the investment volume in relation to the selected foodstuffs and the expected operating costs. We also provide services for the partial optimisation of existing or third-party plants.

The optimisation offer includes, among other things, the adjustment of nutrient mixtures, lighting optimisation in closed plants with consideration of the growth phase in artificial light.
Our services include the general takeover or just the technical planning of farm projects up to the construction management and commissioning of the plant. We also provide advice and support during operation.

Our special field of research is the adapted nutrient requirement depending on the growth phase of the respective plant. This requires a biochemical analysis of the nutrients consumed or required by the plant depending on its stage of development.

Our motivation

Our motivation is the desire to sustainably provide food with a minimum of negative effects on nature and the environment. Our business model is to combine an optimum yield with a minimum of resources and costs through research. Our primary objective is sustainable agriculture. The knowledge and experience we have acquired through our own research and experience is ultimately the product we sell to you. Our experience allows you to build up an optimal farm without time- and cost-intensive investments.

Abstract

The aim of our company is to provide technology, knowledge, advice and realisation in all aspects of aquaponics & hydroponics. The company itself carries out research and development in the related areas of

the fertiliser composition depending on planting, growth phase and season,
the selection, control, monitoring and maintenance of the necessary pumps, filters and regulators,
remote monitoring of the system,
growth and success control.
In addition, we develop all the software for control, regulation, monitoring and supervision ourselves or use open source and licence-free products.

The monitoring can be done centrally via computer or decentrally via PC or microcontroller (Arduino and Rhaspberry). The sensors for nutrients, conductivity and process control (water exchange and water flow monitoring, nutrient concentration, oxygen content, etc.) are all based on industry standard sensors. Depending on the system, a very inexpensive spot check with a photometer is available in the single-digit euro range per measurement and substance, or in the four-digit range for a continuous measurement and control, depending on the substance. In the field of analysis, we can also recommend various alternatives.
