A review of herbicide use in the control of water hyacinth with recommendations on possible use in Lake Victoria
Lake Victoria, which is socioeconomically important to the riparian states of Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and to the global global community, has a surface area of 68,000 km2while the adjoining lake catchment area measures 184,000 km2. The gross domestic product of the catchment is estimated at US $ 3-4 billion and supports an estimatedpopulation of 25 million people. The lake is used as a source of food, hydropower, drinking and irrigation water, transport and tourism. Major threats facing Lake Victoria include the problem of pollution and water hyacinth.
