Seaweed Farming as a Feedstock for the Bioeconomy
Seaweed Farming at the lowest trophic level, using only sunlight and nutrients from the sea and taking up CO2, have a neutral carbon footprint and the biomass contribute significantly to meet the demand for Human Food, Animal Feed, Biofertilizers, Phycocolloids, Chemicals, Bioplastics, and Pharmaceuticals products.
Through a new Bioeconomy based on Seaweed Farming, we will establish a future feedstock bypassing the competition with land-based agricultural resources.
This blue bioeconomy will strenghten the nations as a suppliers of Seaweeds. Three priority areas must be focused:
• SEAWEEED Production Technology
• BIORREFINERY
• MARKET and PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Environmental and social Aspects
The Seaweed Farming is a habitat of a wide variety of invertebrates , mollusc and fish, providing high productivity and biodiversity (Creation of new ecological niches);

Because they are organisms are photo synthesizers, they use sunlight transforming it into chemical energy, releasing oxygen to important marine animals.
Seaweed farming is an alternative economic activity that reduces fishing pressure inshore as more people become involved in farming.
