Abstract

Seaweed farming industry is set to get a major boost with the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) transferring its technology of seaweed cultivation to the Andaman administration. A CMFRI release issued here on Friday said this was done as part of the its initiative for intensifying its consultancy services. Seaweed cultivation is currently seen as the most environmentally benign types of mariculture activity. A feasibility study conducted in the seawater inundated areas in south Andaman by a team of CMFRI scientists that these regions are highly prospective for the seaweed farming. Aimed at avoiding environmental disruptions, CMFRI selected the coastal areas devoid of coral reefs.
