Why seaweed
Improves health
Lowers methane emissions
Improves health
Seaweeds is rich in dietary fibers and proteins, up to 40% of its dry weight, and with various vitamins, minerals, and omega-3, seaweed is a nutritional powerhouse. It grows rapidly, without the need for freshwater, making it one of the most efficient and sustainable food sources available.
Sustainable
Lowers methane emissions
Improves health
Seaweed represents the future of sustainable food and resource. As the global population surges toward 10 billion by 2057, our planet faces unprecedented challenges: freshwater scarcity, changes in climate and environmental degradation. Seaweed is a revolutionary solution for feeding the world sustainably.
Lowers methane emissions
Lowers methane emissions
Lowers methane emissions
The red seaweed Asparagopsis offers a natural way to reduce methane emissions from cows up to 80%. This seaweed, when added to cattle feed, inhibits the methane production in the cow’s rumen. The solution is already widely used in Australia. In Europe, Seaweedland is at the forefront of advancing this natural solution.
Why land based
Controlled, efficient and consistent
On land seaweed cultivation offers the following benefits
- Consistent quality, without allergens
- Consistent production without seasonality
- High food safety without the risk of heavy metals
- No freshwater needed
- Unmatched efficiency, ten times more protein per ha than soy.
Employment and social impact
Land based seaweed cultivation is a form of saline agriculture, transforming low-fertility or saline-affected land into productive farmland. This approach fosters social and economic opportunities in coastal and arid regions, offering employment, local food production, export potential and sustainable growth. By leveraging land based seaweed cultivation, we unlock the potential of seaweed as a sustainable source for food and feed.
