Kelp Farming

Kelp farming involves growing large marine algae, known as kelp, in ocean waters. This sustainable practice uses underwater structures to cultivate kelp, which can grow rapidly. Kelp absorbs carbon dioxide and nutrients, making it beneficial for the environment by promoting water quality and supporting marine life. Harvested kelp is used in various industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, and as a natural fertilizer. Kelp farming not only provides economic opportunities for coastal communities but also contributes to climate change mitigation and ecosystem health, making it an important part of sustainable ocean resource management.
