The present experiment aims to evaluate the effects of incremental levels water hyacinth (WH) in Para grass (Brachiaria mutica) based on diet nutrient intake, digestibility, and nitrogen retention growing swamp buffaloes. Four male buffaloes 305 ± 8.40 kg were allocated a 4x4 Latin square design. treatments 25, 50, 75, 100% WH (DM basis), replacing (PG) corresponding WH25, WH50, WH75, WH100 tre...

Water scarcity is one of the key global challenges affecting food safety, security, and human health. Constructed wetlands (CWs) provide a sustainable tool to remediate wastewater. Here we explored potential vertical flow-CWs (VF-CWs) vegetated with ten indigenous wetland plant species treat chromium (Cr)-contaminated water. The plants were develop VF-CWs Cr-contaminated water in batch mode. Re...
