Aquatic Weed Harvesting provides an ecologically sound and environmentally friendly solution. Weeds represent a significant amount of biomass, and associated nutrients, that if not removed would otherwise add to the siltation of the water body and contribute to its future eutrophication. The removal of weed mass is very important.
Weed harvesting offers immediate aesthetic results, assists in restoring oxygen levels and reducing nutrient levels that otherwise would be recycled through the water system and fuel future weed and algae growth. This has a direct positive benefit to the long-term water quality
