In the last two weeks we have gone on two different field trip one was to Marie's garden and the other field trip was to the Loi both field tripes were to two different farms that practiced sustainability in two different ways Marie's garden practiced sustainability a bit more futuristically than the loi
The Loi practiced sustainability by using all natural resources it uses a stream for water and it is all done by man and it can almost be run completely by itself except for planting the seeds and stepping on the soil so the ground would be fertile. The taro is grown there and they are a very large amount of taro on this island. I think that this way is very easy and it is very effective. Something that I think was interesting in this farm was its size I thought that the place were the Loi is planted would be larger.
Marie's garden was a more futuristic farm because it has many different methods of farming it has hydroponics which is using mineral nutrients solutions in water without using soil. Instead of soil they use other smiles they also have aquaponics is similar to hydroponics however it uses fish for nutrients and the last thing that they had was a fusion between both hydroponics and aquaponics they use small rectangular pots that fell sponges and they have plants there.
Bothe places were simulate because they'd both practice sustainability. However the way they practiced sustainability was very different because Marie's garden used hydroponics aquaponics and a hybrid between the two. the Loi used the ancient Hawaiians method of farming witch is a farm that takes water from the stream and reuses it consistently and feeders the plant.
