Experts warn booming seaweed industry

(Terry Collins Assoc) UN University's Institute for Water, Environment and Health, and the Scottish Association for Marine Science, today publish policy advice to the multi-billion dollar seaweed farming industry, warning that the rapidly growing industry could easily and needlessly drop into pitfalls previously experienced in both agriculture and fish farming.Seaweed farms now produce more than 25 million metric tonnes annually valued at US$6.4 billion (2014), exceeding the value of world lemon and lime crops.
