Algae control with barley straw

By William E. Lynch Jr.
Spacer
This Ohio State University Extension fact sheet (also available as a PDF) describes how barley straw has been used to control algae in ponds and the possible mechanism by which it may work. It is also pointed out that some research in the USA has failed to corroborate the positive results of the Centre for Aquatic Plant Management in England.
