Abstract: Two groups of marine algae have received particular attention with regard to development of marine industries involving the production and harvesting of seaweeds for the extraction of phycocolloids. These are agarophytes of the genera Gracilaria and Polycavernosa and carrageenan-bearing species of the genus Eucheuma. Resource biology, phycocolloid industry, assessment of stocks, and regulation management and conservation are covered. The cultivation of seaweeds for phycocolloid production would seem well-suited for remote areas within the region since the seaweeds can be sun-dried, stored for long periods and shipped by boat. Seaweed farming development should proceed with caution, however, proceeded by careful marketing and economic analysis, including the development of strategies for penetrating the existing markets.
