Enviroponics

"The use of natural and/or organic inputs within a protected growing environment using aquaponics, hydroponics, and the release of beneficial insects and other natural controls to create a balanced ecology for the production of plants, vegetables, fruit, fish and other aquatic species in an environmentally sustainable way without the use of non-organic pesticides or harmful chemical additives."

This term is used to describe a holistic approach to urban farming based upon a combination of factors used in traditional, organic, aquaculture, and hydroponic production of plants and foods.
