How to Cultivate Azolla

Azolla Cultivation:- For Azolla production, it requires a shallow pond. Let us discuss more about Azolla growing in fresh water ponds.

As this requires good water supply, choose a location near to good water source. Basically, Azolla prefers partial shade, hence one should select the location where partial shade is expected or create the partial shade to cover the location.
