Aquatic farming systems

The invention describes a system for farming seafood like fish or shrimp in an indoor, controlled environment. Specifically, it uses a single, long, horizontal tube buried completely underground to house the aquatic animals in a raceway. The system includes equipment to supply nutrients to the water and remove waste, while also growing crops on the surface above and around the buried seafood farm.

Why it matters: The filing predates significant advancements in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and controlled environment agriculture (CEA). Modern water treatment, automation, and energy management technologies could make this thermally stable, integrated buried farming system more efficient and economically viable today.
