The book uncovers seaweed potential and describes the various sources of seaweed, the role of seaweeds as a sustainable source for human food and animal feeds, and the role of seaweed farming for sustainability. In addition to harvesting and processing information, the book discusses the benefits of seaweed in human nutrition and its nutraceutical propeMarine algaeMarine algae as foodMarine algae.Marine algae as food.579.8/177Tiwari Brijesh K.932120Troy Declan J.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797544403321Seaweed sustainability3835798UNINA
