Ascophyllum seaweed has a range of horticultural applications. Our Scottish production is approved for use in Biodynamic and Organic agricultural systems in Europe and the USA.

A great deal of research over in the past 50 years provides ample evidence of beneficial use and this species more than any other is the horticultural seaweed of choice for its outstanding balance of nutrients.

Seagreens® has long been interested in this field and we will be pleased to discuss the various ways in which we and our specialist horticultural partners can help.

We have conducted small farm studies in ochra and onions in India in 1996, in biodynamic seaweed composting in 2009-2010 in collaboration with the Biodynamic Michael Hall Garden  and the BDAA Agricultural College at Forest Row in Sussex, England and at Laverstoke Park ('the organic university') in Hampshire.

“Soil loves seaweed. As mulch or in a compost heap it’s a veritable miracle grow”
- Fergus Drennan, wild food celebrity, The Ecologist, July/August 2008.

We completed a small trial in compost in 2009-10 showing a very significant difference in crop growth when the seaweed is incorporated in the compost.
