Aquaculture Nutrition and Growth

The objective was to evaluate the growth of basil (Origanum basilicum) and marjoram (Origanum majorana) using effluent from cultivation of tilapia in aquaponic systems. A total of 1000 post-larvae of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were distributed in boxes of 1.000 liters of water inside greenhouse. The experimental of plant growth was assembled according to a completely randomized design with two treatments: Treatment 1, cultivation of basil (Origanum basilicum), and Treatment 2, cultivation of marjoram (Origanum majorana), with three repetition. For the cultivation, the plants were placed in a platform. During the 42 days of experiments it was observed significant difference in weight and growth of basil compared to marjoram. The effluent from the cultivation of fish can be used in cultivation of basil and marjoram in aquaponic systems, allowing a favorable growth of the plants.
