In the YouTube video "REVOLUCIONANDO A AGRICULTURA: FLORES COMESTÍVEIS E AQUAPONIA!", the hosts welcome viewers to their production in Mangaratiba, Rio de Janeiro, where they grow edible flowers and herbs, as well as raise tilapia fish in an aquaponic system. They explain that this is an unusual way of farming as most tilapia is produced in the interior of Brazil, and introduce the concept of aquaponics , where the plants' nutrient-rich water is used to feed the fish, and the fish waste provides nutrients for the plants. The hosts also discuss the history of humans observing animals and their diets, and growing flowers for consumption, specifically mentioning the Clitoria ternatea or Blue Morpheus flower. They also produce herbs for restaurants and supermarkets, and create herbal tinctures for medicinal use through a process called maceration. The speaker emphasizes the importance of aquaponics in fish farming, specifically using tilapia due to its hardiness and the benefits of using salty water for production. They aim to produce 60-70 tons of fish this year and focus on improving production, using a seal of quality for their tilapia to differentiate their product. The video also showcases other agricultural production happening in the area.

  • 00:00:00 In this section of the YouTube video titled "REVOLUCIONANDO A AGRICULTURA: FLORES COMESTÍVEIS E AQUAPONIA!", the hosts welcome viewers to their production in Mangaratiba, Rio de Janeiro, where they grow edible flowers and herbs, as well as raise tilapia fish in an aquaponic system. The hosts explain that they are growing flowers and producing fish in an unusual way, as most tilapia farming is done in the interior of Brazil, particularly in the region of Toledo, which is the largest tilapia exporter in the country. The hosts then introduce the concept of aquaponics, where the plants' nutrient-rich water is used to feed the fish, and the fish waste provides nutrients for the plants. They also mention that they are growing edible flowers due to their increasing demand and popularity, and that they have been inspired by ideas from California. The hosts invite viewers to like their channel and learn more about this delicious process in Mangaratiba. They also discuss the history of humans observing animals and their diets, and how they have passed down this knowledge from generation to generation. The hosts then explain that growing flowers for consumption can be challenging, as it requires time and care, but they are now growing and selling clitoria, among other edible flowers, at the market. The video also features seven greenhouses, each with a specific purpose, including one for growing herbs and aromatics.
  • 00:05:00 In this section of the YouTube video "REVOLUCIONANDO A AGRICULTURA: FLORES COMESTÍVEIS E AQUAPONIA!", the speaker explains the process of growing and consuming edible flowers, specifically mentioning the example of the Clitoria ternatea or Blue Morpheus flower. The speaker describes how the seeds are planted, germinated, and then the flowers are harvested and used for various purposes such as making tea. The speaker also mentions that the Clitoria ternatea is known for its health benefits, including being a neuroregulator, aphrodisiac, and diuretic. The speaker then discusses the process of aquaponics, where the water from the fish tank is used to irrigate the plants, creating a symbiotic relationship between the fish and the plants. The speaker also mentions that some plants, like Amaranth, have survival strategies and can be eaten despite being venenous.
  • 00:10:00 In this section of the YouTube video titled "REVOLUCIONANDO A AGRICULTURA: FLORES COMESTÍVEIS E AQUAPONIA!", the speaker discusses the production of herbs and their extracts through a process called maceration. He starts by expressing his excitement about the fresh cilantro and its potential, emphasizing its purity and radicalness. The speaker then introduces the concept of aquaponics, a sustainable farming method that uses fish waste to fertilize plants. He mentions that they produce herbs for restaurants and supermarkets, and also create herbal tinctures for medicinal use. The process involves crushing the herbs, placing them in a glass jar, and covering them with alcohol for several weeks. The speaker emphasizes the importance of ensuring all parts of the herbs come into contact with the alcohol. After the maceration period, the alcohol is filtered and stored in bottles, resulting in highly concentrated herbal extracts. The speaker mentions some examples of herbs and their medicinal properties, such as oregano being an antibiotic and the Brazilian herb baleira being anti-inflammatory. He also mentions that they have an e-commerce platform for those interested in purchasing their products. The conversation then shifts to aquaponics, specifically tilapia production, which is done in water with different PH levels, temperatures, and salinities to mimic the conditions of the sea. The speaker mentions that they use a seal of quality for their tilapia, produced with seawater, to differentiate their product from others. They aim to maintain a high salinity level to ensure optimal growth conditions for the fish.
  • 00:15:00 In this section of the YouTube video "REVOLUCIONANDO A AGRICULTURA: FLORES COMESTÍVEIS E AQUAPONIA!", the speaker discusses the use of aquaponics in fish farming and the benefits of using tilapia in this system. Tilapia is a hardy fish that requires an aerator for proper respiration, and the cost of production also depends on salinity levels which vary according to climate and rainfall. The speaker mentions that they aim to produce 60-70 tons of fish this year, and the focus is on improving production. The tilapia is raised in water with added salinity, which provides various benefits including osmotic control for the fish. This system allows for constant osmotic control without the use of antibiotics, adding value to the final product. The speaker also mentions taking the fish medication twice a day for acute pain and three times a day for chronic conditions. The video also showcases other agricultural production happening in the area.
