| Abstract | "Seaweed extracts (Ascophyllum, Fucus, Sargassum, Saccorhiza, Laminaria, and other), when they are applied on the leaves, the main effects are: better seed germination and higher quality fruit production, with increased storage period; a better use of soil nutrients; crops more productive and plants with increased resistance to unfavorable environmental conditions"-- Provided by publisher. |
