Ascophyllum nodosum, commonly known as rockweed, knotted wrack, or Norwegian kelp, is a large brown seaweed (macroalga) in the Fucaceae family, belonging to the Phaeophyceae class.
It's the only species in the genus Ascophyllum and is widely distributed in the cold waters of the North Atlantic Ocean, from the White Sea and Svalbard to Portugal in Europe, and from Baffin Island to New Jersey in North America.
It thrives in the intertidal zone, particularly on sheltered rocky shores, and is a dominant species in these ecosystems.

The following chart includes estimated ranges for key components: alginates, fucoidans, phlorotannins, mannitol, proteins, and ash (minerals). These values are approximate, as they vary by region, season, and reproductive stage, but they reflect typical data from studies.
| Composition (% Dry Weight) | |
| Alginates | 20 |
| Fucoidans | 10 |
| Phlorotannins | 5 |

Ascophyllum nodosum, a species of brown seaweed commonly found along the North Atlantic coast.
It is increasingly recognized for its beneficial applications in agriculture.
Here are the key aspects of its use:
Phlorotannins: Unique polyphenolic compounds with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, and antimicrobial properties. These are stored in special vesicles (physodes) and contribute to its therapeutic.
Fucoidans: Sulfated polysaccharides with hypolipidemic effects, shown to reduce atherosclerosis progression in mice by promoting reverse cholesterol transport.
Alginates: Polysaccharides used as gelling and emulsifying agents in food (e.g., pie fillings, sauces), pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology. A. nodosum is a major commercial source of alginates, alongside.
Laminaria and Other Compounds: Includes mannitol, laminarin, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, minerals (e.g., iodine, potassium, magnesium), and plant growth regulators like auxins, cytokinins, and betaines.
Agriculture: Extracts enhance plant growth, nutrient uptake, and stress resilience, reducing chemical fertilizer use.
Soil Application:
- 1-4 lbs per acre as a soil amendment or top-dressing.
- Mix thoroughly into soil before planting.
Foliar Application:
- 0.5-2 lbs per acre, applied as a foliar spray.
- Reapply every 2-4 weeks during the growing season.
Hydroponics/Irrigation System:
- 1-2 oz per 100 gallons of nutrient solution or irrigation water.
- Adjust concentration based on the specific crop and growing
conditions.
Fertilizer: Bags:
- 1kg bags
- 10kg bags
- 25 kg (55 lb) bags
- 50 lb (22.7 kg) bags
- 1 metric ton (1,000 kg) super sacks
