Additonal growing seasons will be monitored to provide a more reliable base for evaluating the effect of bed losses and the natural marsh drainage on nearby lakes. In particular, the role of iron in sediments of the ditches and lakes will be given primary emphasis. References Fellers, C. and W. B. Esseler. 1955. Nutrient content of vegetable crops.
