Seaweed, also known as 'kelp', is a marine algae, found is various shades and hues. It belongs to different groups of red, brown and green algae. It is rich in iron and helps in the functioning of blood cells, iodine that helps in the proper functioning of thyroid and prevents goiter too. People living in the coastal areas in China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Taiwan, etc. consume noodles that are prepared from seaweed. There are many delicacies, which are prepared using seaweed as the main ingredient or for garnishing. This extract is also used as an ingredient in toothpaste.
Seaweed extracts are often used in conjunction with other products, both traditional and non- traditional. The use of nontraditional products such as humates and fish emulsions have received tremendous attention in recent years. Although the nutrient content of these products is as varied as the sources from which they are derived, alternative products can be used to furnish primary and secondary nutrients, improve soil cation exchange capacity, increase the presence of plant growth hormones, and stimulate plant defense mechanisms against diseases and insects. In short, seaweed extracts, traditional and nontraditional products serve to complement each other and can furnish a wide variety of chemical, physical or biological improvements to the crop and its growing environment. From a scientific standpoint, a large body of literature has been amassed to support the use of seaweeds and seaweed extracts in agricultural programs.
