Seagrass meadows may yield more nutritious catch than reefs

Original: "Seagrass meadows may offer coastal communities a more nutritious catch than reefs" # Seagrass # Environment # Oceans ht

A new report suggests seagrass meadows could provide coastal communities with more nutritious fish catches than coral reefs. The finding points to seagrass habitats as an underappreciated resource for food security, with potential implications for how fisheries and conservation efforts are prioritised in tropical coastal regions.

Why now: The findings challenge the usual focus on coral reefs for fisheries and food security, making them relevant to conservation debates.
