New! Introducing the best part of the Commercial DIY Package, the Friendly Business Module:
As the commercial aquaponics farm that’s been in business the longest, we have the most business experience to share with you. That now includes the Friendly “Business Module” (in your 335-page manual), which walks you through all the steps of starting a profitable aquaponic organic farming business: test growing, marketing, CSA’s, profit prediction spreadsheets, internet presence and how to build a WordPress website for your business, Organic Certification, Food Safety Certification, materials lists, supplier’s information, and much more!
It includes four spreadsheets (with easy-to-use instructions) for predicting specific crop and market success; you simply input local prices for the produce item, and your itemized costs of doing business. The spreadsheets automatically calculate your gross income, then take out total expenses (including labor- it shows you how to estimate this also), loan payments, depreciation, and even taxes, and return a bottom line number that shows how much money you will make in your organic farming operation.
It also includes our new Food Safety Certification package for compliance with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). These are NOT the old GAP “guidelines”; they are no longer applicable. Our FSMA package is a self-explanatory publication that guides you through the process, and includes a sample checklist audit, complete instructions, and extensive fillable forms that you simply put your farm name and information into.
It also includes two organic farming aquaponics business plans, a promotional slide show you can use to educate your bank loan officer and investors about aquaponics, our newest pest control publication: “How To Win The War On Bugs”, the most up-to-date information on costs and considerations for using artificial lighting in your commercial aquaponics system, and most importantly: our new guide “How To Select A Property For Organic Farming” (it’s smart to check before you buy, because those folks won’t certify just any property).
Interested in USDA Organic Certification? You should be! If you grow commercially, Organic Certification usually brings double the price. We’ve been certified since 2008, and are the only aquaponics trainers who can currently teach you how to get certified.
Your package includes a downloaded course manual, downloaded computer-drawn construction plans, a downloaded construction manual with tons of pictures, and a downloaded day-to-day operations manual. You can print any of these you wish, or view and use on a laptop or iPad.
Please be aware that these Commercial Aquaponics Systems grow food exceedingly well, but will not magically turn you into a business person. Make sure you get training on running a business from local sources to supplement what you already know.
Lifetime Guarantee: We guarantee a full refund of the purchase price of your Commercial System plans IF you have actually used them. If you have built and operated a system and are still not satisfied, we will refund your money in full.
Please Note: this is a downloaded product only. When you purchase, you will immediately receive a download link to DropBox, the premier Web file download site, and will be able to download your entire purchase to your computer; it will take awhile, it’s about 2 MB!
