One of the main objectives for the Baltic Sea regions is the harmonisation of the economic development and environmental sustainability. The identification of knowledge-intensive bioeconomy as one of the primary fields of the strategy for smart specialization (RIS3) in Latvia indicates the transition to sustainable and climate neutral approach for the development of Latvia. The strategy aims to promote a more sustainable and efficient use of natural resources, to create high added value, to promote coordination of export and economic interests with environmental protection. This is a multi-faceted and complex process. A scientifically sound approach is needed to develop the most appropriate solutions. The article examines algae biomass as a potential for renewable resources in the agriculture of Latvia in the context of sustainability. The research is aimed at exploring the potential of the Baltic Sea algae as a sustainable agricultural resource in Latvia, focusing on its impact on cultivated plants during the study. The potential is being assessed by conducting a practical study in two stages. The results of the study confirm the potential use of Baltic Sea algae as an agricultural resource in Latvia, which requires further evaluation of the effect of the liquid digestate fraction on crop green mass to determine its potential applicability in agriculture using algal biomass.
