4. Background
Water hyacinth is an invasive species that has a
negative impact on aquatic ecosystems, sucking
oxygen out of the water and clogging waterways. It
can be used to make bayong, which is treated with
sodium metabisulphite to prevent it from rotting.
In terms of chemical composition, water hyacinth
is enriched in nitrogen levels (3.2% of dry material)
with a carbon to nitrogen ratio of 15. Given to their
strong ability to uptake considerable amounts of
nutrients and other chemicals, the chemical
composition is likely to vary depending upon the
environment (Gunnarsson & Petersen, 2007).

5. The use of water hyacinth (Eichhornia
crassipes) as a raw material for making
various handicrafts, such as bags, hats,
and baskets, has been a traditional
practice in many Southeast Asian
countries, including the Philippines. The
plant is abundant in natural bodies of
water and is considered a nuisance due
to its rapid growth and ability to clog
waterways (Nepal et al., 2018). However,
its fast growth rate and durability make it
a suitable material for crafting various
handmade items.

7. Finding water hyacinth is the first job we
have to do. We can look for water hyacinths
along rivers, ponds and dams.

02
Methods
Looking for Water Hyacinth
Washing the Water Hyacinth
The next step is washing the water hyacinth. Once
removed from ponds, dams or rivers, there is bound
to be some contamination such as garbage or odors
on plants. By washing it, the plants can be used.
03 Separating the Water Hyacinth
from the stalk .
After cleaning, then the water hyacinth is sorted.
Separate the stems from the leaves, this stage aims
to classify which ingredients will be made into
baskets. Separation can be done using a large knife
or scissors.
04
Drying the Water Hyacinth
After the stems and leaves separate, the next step is
drying. This is possible if there is not enough sunlight, for
example during the rainy season. But if you can get good
sunshine, directly horrifying to the hot sun will be more
natural and better.
05 Making Craft Patterns
While waiting for the natural drying process, it’s good to
take the time to make craft patterns. What kind of basket
you want to make using this basic material. Later, the
baskets will be made after the water hyacinth is woven into
sheets.
06
Weaving the Water Hyacinth
After drying and knowing the design, the next step is to
weave the water hyacinth. There are a variety of different
woven patterns to choose from according to taste. The
wicker sheet is made of the size of the slab we are going to
make.
07 Finishing
After being woven in sheet form, then it is formed into
baskets. of water hyacinth baskets that have been made.

11. Water Hyacinths one of the world's most invasive
water weeds-causes serious ecological and socioeconomic
problems, primarily by reducing water quality and flow,
hindering fishing and navigation, blocking canals and
drainage systems, and creating a microhabitat for a variety
of disease vectors.Due to these given reasons, the
researchers presumed that using Water Hyacinths as a
bayong reducing the water hyacinth that can cause
clogged in water drainage system.
