  • The fertilizer composition is an algae-based, biodegradable and compostable fertilizer composition. The fertilizer composition includes an algal biomass, ground fenugreek seeds, and a binder for molding the fertilizer into pellets. In some embodiments, the fertilizer composition includes Enteromorpha prolifera (E. prolifera), ground and sieved fenugreek seeds, and mastic gum. E. prolifera contains numerous nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and a variety of bioactive compounds. Fenugreek seeds have antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, and also have natural insect repellant properties. Mastic gum exhibits antimicrobial activity. Thus, the fertilizer composition provides a variety of nutrients to plants and also provides protection against pathogens. In the fertilizer composition, a ratio of the E. prolifera to the ground fenugreek seeds to the mastic gum by weight may be 6:3:1.
