The River Ancholme, which until recently was covered in green weed, was almost clear of the stuff on Sunday morning when we took these pictures. Amazing what a bit of heavy rain can do to disperse things the natural way.

Barley straw is also a natural way, Scribs.
With the sliggish nature of the Ancholme it's not rocket science to establish where the main source of contaminant is coming from with some water/soil sampling.
It could also explain why the Old Ancholme, comparative to the Old Ancholme, appears to be quite severely affected.
If its run-off from crop fertilizer, my suspicion is that it's coming from the drainage dykes off the Old Ancholme.
Rotting barley straw has been found to help - competing chemical neutralise each other.
To have the Ancholme with a dense green carpet on an annual basis is not acceptable to anyone.
One controversial solution is to have GM crops on the banks of the Ancholme. They don't need fertilizers.
GM crops have got to evolve..at the present time, their development is clouded with myths that they do harm, yet there is no evidence what-so-ever.
Millions are starving because of the developed world's tendency to promote organic food.
I also wonder how much of GM crops' scepticism has been promoted by the petro-chemical industries. For example, the oil conglomerations in the USA have been known to support
Man-made Climate deniers.
It's what know as putting profit before reason.
nice post. Now you can use online b2b trade directory for bulk organic fertilizers import & export business.
