Objectives

The projet deals with the development of a sustainable liquid biostimulant extracted from Indonesia seaweeds to improve soil quality and crop production (corn). 

It aims to:

• Develop sustainable liquid biostimulants extracted from Indonesian seaweeds, by selecting two marine species (Eucheuma and Sargassum) in collaboration with seaweeds producers and the Indonesian Seaweed Association
• Improve soil quality, food production and corn (Zea mays) yields in a trial field supervised by the Cereal Crops Research Institute (Allepolea, Lau, Maros District, South Sulawesi).
