Unlock Nature's Potential:
Sustainable Growth with Our Seaweed Biostimulant
At Câr-Y-Môr, we value the symbiotic relationship between the sea and the soil. We are excited to introduce our seaweed-based plant biostimulant. A natural solution cultivating resilience and abundance on your farm.
Nature's Solution: Seaweed Biostimulant for Enhanced Growth
Our seaweed biostimulant is not just a product; it's a promise to the land and to those who nurture it. As a sustainably focused, community-owned business based in Pembrokeshire, West Wales, we are dedicated to providing a cutting-edge biostimulant. The biostimulant is derived from our zero-input ocean farm located in grade A waters of the Ramsey Sound.
Our biostimulant is designed to help land farmers maximise their crop yields, whilst requiring the use of less synthetic fertiliser. Reasearch shows it will also increase the resilience of their crops to extreme weather events such as floods, frosts and droughts.
With a capacity to process a minimum of 4 tonnes per day of fresh seaweed, our plans are to work with, and purchase from, other farmers of high-quality kelp seaweeds. This will meet the ever growing market demand for these home-grown biostimulant products, help grow the UK seaweed industry and retain the benefits for coastal communities.
Why are seaweed biostimulants good for farmers?
A seaweed biostimulant is…
…a seaweed-based fertilising product which stimulates plant nutrition processes independently of, and in addition to, the product’s nutrient content to increase the root and shoot plant biomass and enhance the quality and yield of crops by improving:
availability of confined nutrients in the soil or rhizosphere
nutrient use efficiency
tolerance to abiotic stress (flooding, drought, temperature extremes, nutrient stress & salinity)
plant defense and immune response
…a cost effective, easy to apply, nature-based alternative way to increase the resilience of plants, restore soil health and natural nutrient-cycling processes whilst enhancing the shelf-life, taste and nutrient density of the food, forage and feeds grown in Wales
Our Journey: From Seaweed to Sustainability
Câr-y-Môr has pioneered Wales' first regenerative seaweed and shellfish farm, marking a significant stride in sustainable aquaculture. Rooted in the belief that zero-input farming can catalyse profound environmental and social change, Câr-y-Môr's journey began with the goal of not only improving the coastal ecosystem but also bolstering the local community through job creation and sustainable practices. Harnessing the ocean's bounty, Câr-y-Môr utilises innovative techniques to farm seaweed without fertilisers, pesticides, or freshwater. This in turn, embodies a commitment to net-zero climate goals and fosters biodiversity. Our story is one of innovation, community, and a vision for a greener, more resilient future.
Our Impact: Benefiting Farmers and the Earth
Imagine boosting your yields by an average of 17%*, reducing dependency on costly synthetic fertilisers, and empowering your soil with enhanced resilience against abiotic stress. All while contributing to the UK's transition to low-carbon agriculture. Our biostimulant makes this a reality, by tapping into the rich resource of farm-grown sugar kelp and oarweed. It harnesses the ocean's nutrients through an energy-efficient process to nourish and invigorate your soil.
