barley straw
Algae-fighting grain stalks
Barley straw is the dried stems left after barley grain has been harvested.
Like other straws, it serves as animal bedding, mulch, or fodder.
Barley straw has a particular use in ponds and water features, where it's believed to inhibit algae growth as it decomposes: We added a bale of barley straw to the koi pond.
