Dr. Tom Coon, Director of MSU Extension asked me to forward this to the
organic listserv readers. If you use barley straw in your ponds it would be
great if you could respond.
Thanks

Subject: Barley Straw study/survey
Dear Dr. Coon,
My name is Felicity Francis and I am a graduate student at
in
Biology, I am working on a project to gauge the effectiveness of barley
straw as an algistatic agent in aquatic environments. I am trying to
locate
aquatic managers or others who have used barley straw and would be willing
to complete a survey to gauge the success of this method in controlling
algae. I am hoping you may have information and/or contacts that will
assist me in completing this project. The survey can be sent
electronically or via the postal service. Along with this email address,
other contact information is as follows:
