‘Food city’ likely to be off coast of Singapore

A self-sustaining ‘future food city’, featuring a mixed crop cultivation of vegetables, seaweed and fish, could be established off the coast of Singapore.

Combining hydroponics and aquaculture farming technologies, the Oceanus Aquapolis City will be an environmentally-friendly, multi-storey floating and closed-contained farming platform. It will build  on unused sea space, becoming a solution to land-intensive farming.

Oceanus Group is a global seafood value chain manager. The firm has the largest land-based farm in Fotan, China where they primarily spawn abalone juveniles and premium seafood such as prawn.
