Abstract

The January – March 1999 volume of Naga, the ICLARM Quarterly (Vol. # 22 No. 1) contains an article by P. Kaladharan and N. Kaliaperumal on the seaweed industry in India. According to the Abstract, “The seaweed industry in India is mainly a cottage industry and is based only on the natural stock of agar-yielding red seaweeds, such as Gelidiella acerosa and Gracilaria edulis, and alginyielding brown seaweed species such as Sargassum and Tubinaria. India produces 110–132 t of dry agar annually utilizing about 880–1,100 t of dry agarophytes, and 360–540 t of algin from 3,600–5,400 t of dry alginophytes.”
