麻豆约拍

Anns an tanalachd far a bheil muIr agus t矛r a' tighinn ri ch猫ile, gheibhear feamainn ann am pailteas. Ged a tha e coltach ri planntrais le freumhaichean agus duilleagan, agus a' toirt neart bho photosynthesis, 's e a th' ann ach algae. Tha feamainn a' cruthachadh 脿rainn sh貌nraichte agus 脿ite b矛dh airson iomadh creutair mara, agus tha e cuideachd air a bhith air a chleachdadh le mac an duine ann an caochladh dh貌ighean airson m矛ltean bhliadhnaichean.

Tha e air a bhith na st猫idh beathachaidh cudromach, air a bhith air a chleachdadh mar thodhar airson talamh a leasachadh, agus airson a liuthad adhbhar annasach eile.

Anns an naoidheamh linn deug, bha e aig cridhe gn矛omhachais soirbheachail, ach chr矛on sin air falbh. Ach tha 霉idh 脿s 霉r ann a bhith a' cleachdadh a' ghoireis n脿darra seo a-nise. Tha na h-uisgeachan cneasta, glan timcheall Alba nan 脿rainneachd air leth airson toirt air feamainn f脿s.

Mar sin am faigh Alba buannachd bhon 霉idh 脿s 霉r a tha seo ann an algae?

Trusadh - Suas an Fheamainn.

In the shallow waters where land and sea merge, seaweed grows in abundance. Although it resembles a plant with roots and leaves and gains its energy from photosynthesis, it is actually an algae.

Seaweed provides an important habitat and food source for many marine creatures. It's also been used by mankind in many ways for thousands of years. It's been an important source of nutrition, it's been used as fertiliser to improve land and has had many other unusual uses.

During the 19th century it was at the heart of a thriving industry, but that declined. However, there is now renewed interest in this natural resource. The temperate, clear waters around Scotland provide the perfect environment for seaweed to grow. So can Scotland benefit from this renewed interest in algae?
