A sizeable group of experts, including two Maltese scientists, are researching a type of seaweed that may be edible and fit for consumption. This is so that the seaweed Ulva may provide an alternative food source. In all, 105 experts from 28 countries are coordinating in this research. The research has been motivated because while the consumption of such seaweed is popular throughout Asia, this is not the case in Europe. This SeaWheat Project is focussing on the strategic priorities of Europe Horizon 2020 and the provision of safe foods. During the last ten years the interest in coastal marine produce has strongly been regarded as an alternative food source. The research is being carried out with the help of the European Organisation for Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST).
