Summary
This review examines the emerging market for algae-based biostimulants in sustainable agriculture, cataloguing current commercial products and production methods. The authors synthesise evidence on biostimulant efficacy and consider future development opportunities, suggesting algae derivatives as a scalable biological input to support soil health and crop performance in transitioning agricultural systems.
Regional applicability
Findings on algae-based biostimulant availability and market trends are internationally relevant, though UK-specific uptake and regulatory pathways for novel biostimulants would require separate examination. The review's discussion of production technologies and sustainability credentials may inform UK policy on biological inputs and regenerative agriculture, subject to local agronomic validation.
Key measures
Market trends, product availability, production technologies, and projected applications of algae-based biostimulants
Outcomes reported
The paper appears to review current market trends, commercially available algae-derived biostimulant products, and future development pathways for their use in agriculture. It likely synthesises production methods and application potential across farming systems.
