fodder

Does anyone grow Fodder?

[Sonja Martin Young]

Lisa, I grow fodder but I don't use aquaponic water. The sprouts from the barley have enough nutrient without needing to add more. For pictures of our set up look up Homer Barley Sprouters on Facebook. I can't say enough how great it has been for us in Alaska as a horse and livestock feed. I don't even do the fodder in my aquaponic greenhouse since it requires much more stable temperatures than the greenhouse provides.

Sonja - did you make your own fodder growing system or buy one? Can you tell us how it works?
