Seaweed Farming
Seaweed farming or kelp farming is the practice of cultivating and harvesting seaweed. In its simplest form, it consists of the management of naturally found batches. In its most advanced form, it consists of fully controlling the life cycle of the algae. The top seven most cultivated seaweed taxa are '' Eucheuma'' spp., '' Kappaphycus alvarezii'', '' Gracilaria'' spp., ''Saccharina japonica'', '' Undaria pinnatifida'', '' Pyropia'' spp., and ''Sargassum fusiforme''. ''Eucheuma'' and ''K. alvarezii'' are farmed for carrageenan (a gelling agent); ''Gracilaria'' is farmed for agar; while the rest are farmed for food. The largest seaweed-producing countries are China, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Other notable producers include South Korea, North Korea, Japan, Malaysia, and Zanzibar (Tanzania). Seaweed farming has frequently been developed as an alternative to improve economic conditions and to reduce fishing pressure and overexploited fisheries. Global production of farmed a ...
