Seaweeds as Plant Fertilizer, Agricultural Biostimulants and Animal Fodder
Editat de Leonel Pereira, Kiril Bahcevandziev, Nilesh H. Joshien Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2021
Algae also have a long history of use as animal feed. They have a highly variable composition depending on the species, collection season and habitat, and on external conditions such as water temperature, light intensity and nutrient concentration in water.
In relation to ruminal fermentation, a high variability of the digestibility values was found among seaweed species and cannot be attributed only to the composition of different nutrients of the algae. The role of marine algae for reduction of methane production is discussed with particular emphasis on novel algae-based feed strategies that target minimal methane emissions without affecting the functionality of the microbiota and overall animal productivity.

Descriere
This book discusses the use of certain seaweed extracts and their effects on the environment. This book covers the benefits of seaweeds in an agricultural sense (better seed germination, higher quality fruit production, increased crop production, etc.), as well as utilizing seaweed in livestock feed.
