The aim of the project is to implement sustainable warm water aquaculture in Iceland utilizing local resources, building an ecological food park based on integrated systems with polyculture, aquaponics, tailored feed from local raw materials and added value food production with the focus on healthy and safe food for export. Natural green production circles optimize the utilization of energy, water, organic waste material, land and other local resources. This will provide conditions favourable for the sustainable growth of Icelandic food production emphasizing the focus on utilization of geothermal heat, ensuring both adequate supplies of seafood and vegetables and protection of the environment.
