In the Brno district of Heršpice you will find the largest commercial aquaponic farm in the Czech Republic so far. The entire building is adapted for the year-round cultivation of various types of crops and the breeding of thermophilic fish. The farm area is dominated by heated greenhouses with vertical growing systems for various types of leaf, fruit and root vegetables. Of course, the farm also includes facilities for fish farming, which provide a valuable source of nutrients for cultivated plants. Solar energy will be used to the maximum extent possible for heating the greenhouses. By equipping greenhouses with modern roofing with high insulating properties, it will be possible to farm thermophilic fish all year round with very favourable energy costs. The products of the aquaponic farm are intended primarily for customers from Brno and the surrounding area.

In the village of Kaly, north of Brno, we have built the most advanced aquaponic farm in the Czech Republic. Inside, you will find state-of-the-art technologies for combined freshwater fish farming and the cultivation of various vegetables and herbs without soil. The farm is used not only to produce the highest quality food all year round, but also as a research and teaching centre for our company.

At full operation, the farm produces 50 tonnes of trout and 45 tonnes of vegetables per year.

The aquaponic production farm in Letonice, east of Brno, is the third Czech project of the Future Farming group. With the building of this new aquaponic farm on a greenfield site, Future Farming reaches another milestone in the journey to a green-blue future of healthy food. The construction of the Letonice farm connects the possibilities of cutting-edge technology in the field of vertical farming with the advantages of building specifically for the needs of aquaponic farms. The Letonice aquaponic farm produces greens and herbs in symbiosis with the raising of African sharptooth catfish.

The Lážovice farm Fish Garden is our second largest production farm, replacing our originally intended project in Přerov nad Labem. The oldest aquaponic production farm in the Czech Republic started operating as early as 2017 and was integrated into the Future Farming network in September 2023.

The farm, which covers an area of 1,620 square metres, is located in Lážovice (Beroun district), 46 kilometres south-west of Prague. The farm is primarily designed for the production of aquaponic food. At the moment, this is mainly fish. The Fish Garden aquaponic ecofarm is one of the most successful aquaculture projects in the Czech Republic.

The first foreign project we have embarked on is in Slovakia, north of Bratislava. The farm will be built on a revitalized brownfield site, which we have adapted for the operation of the aquaponic farm. Senica will focus on the production of leafy vegetables, herbs, and breeding African catfish. We plan to distribute the food to the local market.
