UESA is a technology based company dedicated to sustainable primary production within close proximity to the end consumer. The basis of the UESA technology is integrating proven aquaculture and hydroponic production systems using a minimal foot print to deliver year round production of food crops, (fish and leafy greens) close to market thereby significantly reducing associated logistic costs along with the key benefit of providing the consumer with a superior fresher product.
Stage 1 of the UESA production system involved a 25 tonne per annum barramundi facility which will be expanded to a 100 tonne production unit with an integrated aquaculture research facility.
