Seaweeds are good sources of food and medicine. Food products like jelly, jam, pickle etc. can be prepared from seaweeds. Many bioactive compounds can be extracted from seaweeds. Seaweed meal and seaweed liquid fertilizer are also' manufacture.d from marine algae. The methods for manufacturing different phyto-chemicals and products from seaweeds are given in this paper.
