Summary: Seaweed may play an important role in lntegrated Multitrophic Aquaculture (IMTA). There is a lack of quantitative sustainability studies of land-based seaweed farming. Therefore, we evaluated Kappaphycus alvarezii land-based farming environmental accounting considering selling the products in these markets: carrageenan industry (C); human consumption (HC); liquid biostimulant for agroindustry (LB). ln the LB market, biostimulant co-product is reused as biomass for the carrageenan industry and biocompound for ruminant feed.
