Duckweed creates an anaerobic environment. When it comes to wastewater lagoons, the lack of dissolved oxygen is bad. (Read our previous article, Troubleshooting Low Lagoon Dissolved Oxygen, for an in-depth look.) Duckweed is a DO killer, blocking the oxygen-transferring interface between the surface of the lagoon and the atmosphere.
Growth rates of duckweed colonies will be reduced by a variety of stresses: such as nutrient scarcity or imbalance; toxins; extremes of pH and temperature; crowding by overgrowth of the colony and competition from other plants for light and nutrients.uckweeds have been fed to animals and fish to complement diets, largely to provide a protein of high biological value. Fish production can be stimulated by feeding duckweed to the extent that yields can be increased from a few hundred kilograms per hectare/year to 10 tonnes/ha/year.
