... any info on invasive aquatic weed control in livestock ponds would be most appreciated. specifically, large infestation of duckweed on acre of water that supports fish and livestock and wildlife Just toss a few gold fish, or carp into the pond. They aren't going to bother the livestock, although if you have a lot of run-off from the fields, the water is going to pick up a lot of nitrates from the urine and manure. So the pond is going to be constantly green with algae. I suppose you could constantly dump commercial livestock safe herbicides into the water.

thanks for the input on koi. i am a bit reluctant,but am gonna look
further into this. The pond has bass and blue gill, frogs too. Geese and dux hang out, and well as the green and blue herons. it's a nifty spot, and I see that this duck weed is just wrecking it for fishing and irrigation. |
