===========================================================
Extract: 

The Duckweed Clearinghouse is a project of PRISM-USA.

Its purpose is to provide a single, comprehensive source of 
information on the duckweeds (Lemnaceae). In particular, it is 
intended to provide practical knowledge about the cultivation 
of this under-utilized family of [aquatic] plants and their use 
both as animal feed and as a natural wastewater treatment 
technology.
