The usage of Hordeum vulgare or barley straw as an algistatic to control eutrophication in lake has been applied in the United States and England. Inspired by barley straw, this research studied about Coix lachryma-jobi as a substitute for barley straw in Indonesia. The aim of this research is to determine the applicability of Coix lachryma-jobi product in reducing algal growth along with its interactions with the nutrients in the water. Two stages of experiment were conducted. The first stage was applying three different products of Coix lachryma-jobi (powder, chop, and straw) in the reactors filled with water from Domestic Wastewater Treatment Plant as a representation of hypertrophic water body. Then the chlorophyll concentration was monitored to indicate algal growth. Another experiment was applying Coix lachryma-jobi in the reactor filled with tap water and water sample. The result of the experiments show that the straw of Coix lachryma-jobi without further physical treatment is the most effective to reduce algae population in the water. However, the mechanism of the algal growth has not been affected by the interactions between Coix lachryma-jobi and the nutrients.

Algae has a great potential for quick capture of biological carbon and its storage in saltwater-inundated coastal wetlands and can also be introduced as a climate adaptive alternate farming practice. An intervention with native algal flora Enteromorpha sp. in enclosed coastal Sundarbans in India on two open water culture techniques, viz. U-Lock & Fish-Bone, shows that growth in native algal stock is influenced by seasonal variations of salinity and other limnological factors. Sundarbans, facing the odds of climate change is fast loosing arable lands to sea level rise. Algaculture in inundated coastal areas can be an adaptive mitigation for the same. Perusal of results show that daily growth rate (DGR%) increases with increasing salinity of the intruding tidal waters to an extent and biomass increment under salt stress results in accumulation of metabolites those are having nutrient values and can yield bio-diesel as well. Algal growth recorded mostly in post monsoon period, has impacts on pH and Dissolved Oxygen (DO) of the ambient water to facilitate integrated pisciculture. The paper suggests that alga-culture has unrealized potentials in carbon sequestration and can be significantly used for extraction of Biodiesel.
