Two different events this week highlight a high-tech food production system called aquaponics.
 
The first is the International Aquaponics Conference at University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point, which wraps up today. The second is the Midwest Renewable Energy Fair, which is held this weekend in Custer.
 
People from ten different countries are attending the International Aquaponics Conference to address a global food shortage by growing vegetables and raising fish indoors. Chris Hartleb is the co-director of the UW-Stevens Point Northern Aquaculture Demonstration Facility.
