Current hydroponics research is investigating effluent use for cucumber and spinach production. Lettuce Trials Hydroponic Lettuce Production Using Liquid Effluent from Poultry Waste Bioremediation as a Nutrient Source1 Liquid Effluent From Poultry Waste Bioremediation as a Nutrient Source For Hydroponic Lettuce Production2 Tomato Trials Liquid Effluent From Poultry Waste Bioremediation As a Potential Nutrient Source for Hydroponic Tomato Production3 1 Liedl BE, Cummins M, Young A, Williams ML, Chatfield JM. 2004.
