Laminaria was harvested for food and 1949 yielded 40.3 metric tons of dry weight. [9] Laminaria need cold water to survive and can only live above 36° N latitude. [citation needed] In 1949, the Chinese started to commercially grow laminaria as a crop. This increased the production of dry weight to 6,200 metric tons.

Saccharina is a genus of 24 species of Phaeophyceae (brown algae). It is found in the north Atlantic Ocean and the northern Pacific Ocean at depths from 8 m to 30 m (exceptionally to 120 m in the warmer waters of the Mediterranean Sea and off Brazil).
It is a common large algae on shores where there is severe wave exposure [7] attached to rocks just below low-watermark in the "Laminaria belt", and is common on rocky shores in exposed places. [ 8 ] [ 9 ] It has a fairly high intrinsic growth rate compared to other algae, 5.5% per day and a carrying capacity of about 2 kg wet weight per square ...
