Why Kelp Meal Deserves a Spot on Your Farm

Whether you’re raising healthy livestock or nurturing fertile soil, kelp meal is a powerhouse natural supplement with a long list of benefits — and it’s all from the ocean!

For Livestock

Kelp meal is a mineral-rich feed additive made from dried and ground seaweed, typically Ascophyllum nodosum. It’s 100% natural, non-GMO, organic, and packed with over 60 trace minerals, vitamins, and beneficial growth compounds.

Benefits of feeding kelp meal:

Supports immune function and overall animal health

Promotes reproductive performance in breeding stock

Enhances hoof and coat condition

Aids in thyroid regulation thanks to its natural iodine content

Can improve feed efficiency and digestion

It’s especially helpful for animals on limited pasture or hay-based diets that may lack diverse minerals.

For Fertilizer & Soil Health

Kelp meal is also a phenomenal soil amendment and plant fertilizer. Its slow-release nutrients and natural growth hormones (like cytokinin and auxins) help improve soil structure and stimulate strong, healthy plant growth.

Benefits of using kelp meal in the garden or pasture:

Boosts soil microbial activity and fertility

Encourages strong root development and drought resilience

Enhances flowering, fruiting, and overall plant vigor

Improves organic matter content in depleted soils

It’s safe for use on everything from pastures to veggie gardens, and even compost piles.

Sustainably Sourced

Not all kelp is harvested in a way that preserves and maintains the vital ocean ecosystem. That’s why we only source kelp from companies that do it right.

Did you know – North Atlantic Organics still harvests kelp by hand and with horses instead of machines?

The Way Nature Intended

Kelp meal fits right into holistic, regenerative, and organic systems. It’s free of synthetic chemicals and safe for people, animals, and the planet.

If you’re looking for a natural boost for your livestock or land, kelp meal is a tried-and-true solution straight from the sea
