dc.description.abstract | Seaweeds, by all means, are “future plants”; they have been projected as the future viand for ever-increasing human populations, viable and sustainable source for biofuel without disturbing global food scenario, as potential candidates for carbon capture and sequestration that is considered as a practical remedy for global warming, and they have a number of pharmaceutical, industrial and biotechnological applications. However, information on its cultivation methods or life history remain obscure to a majority of marine botanists, especially in India. While life histories of seaweeds have traditionally been an exotic topic for specialists- language of which is ciphered with scientific jargons incomprehensible to general scientific audience, its agronomy had been a trade secret for coastal communities in East Asian countries, especially Japan, the Philippines and Indonesia. In this mini-review, an overview of major coastal and offshore seaweed mariculture techniques are presented with the aid of clear-to-understand illustrations. | en_US |
