  • The Valorisation of Sargassum from Beach Inundations
    Journal of Marine Science and Engineering Review Golden Tides: Problem or Golden Opportunity? The Valorisation of Sargassum from Beach Inundations John J. Milledge * and Patricia J. Harvey Algae Biotechnology Research Group, School of Science, University of Greenwich, Central Avenue, Chatham Maritime, Kent ME4 4TB, UK; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44-0208-331-8871 Academic Editor: Magnus Wahlberg Received: 12 August 2016; Accepted: 7 September 2016; Published: 13 September 2016 Abstract: In recent years there have been massive inundations of pelagic Sargassum, known as golden tides, on the beaches of the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and West Africa, causing considerable damage to the local economy and environment. Commercial exploration of this biomass for food, fuel, and pharmaceutical products could fund clean-up and offset the economic impact of these golden tides. This paper reviews the potential uses and obstacles for exploitation of pelagic Sargassum. Although Sargassum has considerable potential as a source of biochemicals, feed, food, fertiliser, and fuel, variable and undefined composition together with the possible presence of marine pollutants may make golden tides unsuitable for food, nutraceuticals, and pharmaceuticals and limit their use in feed and fertilisers. Discontinuous and unreliable supply of Sargassum also presents considerable challenges. Low-cost methods of preservation such as solar drying and ensiling may address the problem of discontinuity. The use of processes that can handle a variety of biological and waste feedstocks in addition to Sargassum is a solution to unreliable supply, and anaerobic digestion for the production of biogas is one such process.

  • OWC 2020 Paper Submission
    OWC 2020 Paper Submission - Science Forum Topic 4 - Innovation in Organic farming: “thinking out of the Box” OWC2020-SCI-463 HARVESTING OUR FERTILISERS FROM THE SEA - AN APPROACH TO CLOSE THE NUTRIENT GAPS IN ORGANIC FARMING Anne-Kristin Løes* 1, Ishita Ahuja1, Anne de Boer2 1Norwegian Centre for Organic Agriculture (NORSØK), 2NIBIO, Tingvoll, Norway Preferred Presentation Method: Oral or poster presentation Full Paper Publication: No Abstract: Organic production in Europe is currently dependent on the input of fertilisers derived from conventional agriculture, such as farmyard manure, slurry and fertilisers derived from slaugther residues. A significant part of the nutrient flows in our food systems goes in one direction, from land to sea, via sewage and leaching. Harvesting marine organisms for fertilisation, or utilising residual materials e.g. from fish industry as fertilisers, may close such nutrient gaps and promote active cycling of nutrients. At NORSØK, we are studying the use of algae fibre (rich in potassium (K), magnesium and sulphur) and fishbones (rich in nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and calcium) as fertilisers. High yields were produced with fishbones, and the short-term N availability was much higher than for mineral N fertiliser or dried poultry manure. Plants with a long period of nutrient uptake benefited from algae fertiliser. However, seaweeds contain significant amounts of arsenic (As), and easily available K may impact a balanced mineral content in the food or feed products. Excess P in the fishbones may cause eutrophication of this fertiliser is appplied to cover N demands of the crop. Research is needed to make a well balanced commercial fertiliser.

I want to thank Willem Brandenburg for organising the greenhouse facilities needed to perform my experiments. I would like to thank both Peter and Willem for their feedback, questions, answers, advice and enthusiasm. I also want to thank Hennie Halm for analysing the samples, the availability of his lab and his willingness to help me during the practical work of my thesis. I want to thank Jetze van Zwol for his help in collecting seaweed material in Zeeland and his great support and greenhouse management during one of my experiments. I am thankful that my friends Andrea, Arnold, Hanna, Marga and Nadine helped me with practical work and finally I want to thank my flat mates and friends for the mental support that is indispensable when doing a thesis. Abstract The focus of this project is on P recovery by using seaweed (Ulva lactuca) as organic fertiliser. The possibilities for using seaweeds as fertiliser, depend on two components. First, to determine whether seaweed is suitable as organic fertiliser, it is necessary to analyse the nutrients taken up by the seaweed, to gain insight in the amounts of nutrients that could be applied to the soil.

  • Biological Soil Fertility
    Biological Soil Fertility Civilisations rise and fall on the fertility of soil. Soil is all too often seen as simply a medium that allows plant growth. We need to be aware of and work with the importance of soil structure, soil biology and soil chemistry and all the interactions between these interrelated factors. In the workshop I focused on Biological Soil Fertility as it has even greater relevance to organbic agriculture than it does to non-organic agriculture. Soil Structure Aggregation When assessing a soil, are there well formed aggregates – do these remain stable when the soil is worked. There are many factors that affect soil structure including cultivation, soil biology, root types present, organic matter level as well as soil texture itself. Soil structure affects the ability of roots to penetrate and the ability to form a good seed bed. Good aggregation offers drainage and aeration while still providing water retention within the aggregates. A soil may have subsoil properties that affect drainage and the performance of particular crops e.g. a hardpan – checking the soil profile is valuable. To assess soil structure, general observations can be made on whether the soil looks like it can receive water freely, drain away excess water, facilitate root growth, form a good enough seedbed without surface capping. Assessing Soil Condition Before Cultivation To preserve soil structure, soil should not be cultivated when it is too dry or too wet. Structural damage can take years to rectify. Soil should be assessed before cultivating. This can be done simply by testing soil consistency as below but in many cases, a more thorough examination is warranted.
