We used to install electric bulbs in the middle of the pond, which consumed a lot of electricity and raised our power bills. After switching to Felight, the electricity cost is zero, and fish feed pellet costs have reduced by 40% in my pond.

Key Challenges in Aquaculture

The fish farming industry in Bangladesh faces critical issues:

  • Unsafe Lighting Methods:Over 4.7 million ponds still use 220V bulbs, posing serious electrical hazards.
  • High Energy Costs:Farmers rely on grid electricity, increasing operational costs.
  • Resource Wastage:Traditional lights attract few insects and contribute to feed waste.
  • Environmental Risk:Electric short circuits cause pond contamination and fish mortality.
  • Scalability Barriers:Current tools are not designed for easy scaling in rural settings.
