Factors Affecting the Growth of the Commercial Seaweeds Industry:
Growing Demand for Healthy Food Products:
Seaweeds are rich in vitamins, iodine, calcium, iron, and antioxidants. These nutritional benefits align with increasing preferences of people for healthier food options. Seaweeds are low in calories and fat, making them an attractive choice for individuals looking to manage their weight and maintain a balanced diet. They are naturally plant-based and vegan, making them a suitable choice for those following vegetarian or vegan diets. As these dietary preferences are becoming more popular, the demand for seaweed-based products is increasing.
Rising Awareness about Sustainability:
Seaweeds are cultivated through sustainable and eco-friendly methods. They require minimal freshwater and do not rely on arable land, reducing the environmental footprint compared to traditional agriculture. Seaweeds can absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere during their growth. This carbon sequestration potential is increasingly recognized as a valuable contribution to mitigating climate change. In addition, seaweed farming does not compete with land-based agriculture, which can help alleviate pressure on limited arable land resources, addressing global food security concerns.
Innovation in Seaweed-Based Products:
Ongoing innovations are leading to a wide range of seaweed-based products, including snacks, condiments, cosmetics, supplements, and biodegradable packaging. This diversification attracts a broader consumer base. Seaweed-based supplements and health products are gaining traction due to their potential health benefits. Innovations in these products cater to consumers seeking natural remedies and nutritional support. Besides this, chefs and food manufacturers are exploring creative ways to incorporate seaweeds into culinary dishes, introducing unique flavors and textures to the market.
