Stay ConnectedThinking Outside The Soil is the next evolution of a podcast with more than 160 episodes behind it. It began as a broader exploration of hydroponics and agriculture.
Now, the show narrows into a focused format on the real-world operators using hydroponic fodder for horses and chickens. Expect straight talk on outcomes, constraints, economics, and implementation.
New episodes drop every Tuesday for horses and every Friday for chickens.
Good morning and Happy Saturday from the farm!
Welcome to Thinking Outside The Soil. Where I talk about topics related to the farmers and ranchers that use hydroponic practices to grow the crops and creatures we need to eat. I am your Host, Sean Short, and today is January 7th, 2023
Thank you for being with us on this beautiful morning! Another great day lies ahead.
Today I am going to talk about hydroponic sunflower fodder. In regards to the ABCD's of Hydroponic Fodder, sunflower is my favorite. Sunflower (Helianthus annuus). Sunflower is a forb that originates from North America. The name ‘Helianthus annuus’ is derived from the Greek word ‘helios’ for ‘sun’ and ‘anthos’ for ‘flower.’ At the same time, annuus means ‘annual’ in Latin. A flower of the Sun that returns each year. Sunflowers are a forb grown for their edible oil and seeds. Interestingly, the word for ‘forb’ comes from the Greek word ‘phorbḗ’, which means ‘fodder’.

Today is December 30th, 2022. Thank you for joining me today.
This episode, I talk about exotic animals that eat hydroponic fodder.
The most surprising industry that has adopted hydroponic fodder is the exotic. An exotic animal is loosely defined as any animal that is not a companion or used for livestock. Hydroponic fodder offers advantages for Alpaca, Elk, Deer, Buffalo, Rabbits, Tilapia, and many zoo animals.
