What exactly will you sell? Will you build the projects in the homes? Will you sell the tools? The knowledge ? The support ? I would be interested if I could buy a smaller version. Your attempt with mushrooms appears to be interesting.
- ph0rque 11y agoThanks for the questions! We will sell backyard system kits, as well as one-time and recurring peripherals such as fish, fish food, plants and mushroom media inserts (if we get it to work), including inserts with food growing in it already. We did build a smaller prototype, the AutoNanoFarm (http://blog.automicrofarm.com/tagged/autonanofarm http://blog.automicrofarm.com/tagged/autonanofarm), but ultimately decided not to develop it. We realized that it didn't help us move forward with our backyard-sized systems. There are plenty of smaller versions available (from http://www.theaquaponicsource.com/product-category/full-systems/aquamini-tabletop-systems/ http://www.theaquaponicsource.com/product-category/full-syst... to https://grovelabs.io/ https://grovelabs.io/).
- vit05 11y agoHow much do you think it would cost? Any plans to send to Africa and other developing countries, perhaps in an agreement with an ONG?
- ph0rque 11y agoCurrently, our cost to build one system is about $1200, so that comes to a price of $2k or higher. We'd love to donate our products (in terms of 10% of profits, or something) to developing countries, but we first have to get to profitability :)
