I love this sh*t! Why it is fascinating to me I have no idea, perhaps some irregular synapse misfirings. I was reading one of many articles about waste recycling systems and it occurred to me that I hadn’t professed my love for these models to the world quite yet. Actually, I do know one of the main reasons I like this stuff, it has direct feed implications for livestock, which is a reoccurring interest of mine. Duckweed in particular. It is a great source of crude protein (comparable to soybeans) can be given to fish, poultry, swine, and ruminants. As I think I have mentioned before feed costs are usually a really high (sometimes the highest) expenses in livestock operations and manure is a problematic by-product, especially in intensive systems. I wonder if duckweed could be grown in lagoons without disturbing the anaerobic process? Fascinating.
