The present disclosure provides a method of increasing aggregation in a soil comprising the step of administering to the soil an amount of a microalgae material to increase aggregation in the soil compared to a substantially identical untreated soil, wherein the microalgae material comprises Chlorella cells and/or Schizochytrium cells. Also disclosed is a method of enhancing the active carbon score of a soil, comprising administering an amount of a microalgae material to the soil to increase the active carbon score of the soil compared to a substantially identical untreated soil, wherein the microalgae material comprises Chlorella cells and/or Schizochytrium cells.

A paramylon-based resin having a weight-average molecular weight of paramylon in a range of 70000 to 140000, and formed by substituting hydrogen atoms of hydroxy groups of a paramylon with a long-chain component being a linear saturated aliphatic acyl group having 14 or more carbon atoms and a short-chain component being an acyl group (acetyl group or/and propionyl group) having 2 or 3 carbon atoms, wherein a degree of substitution with the long-chain component (DS.sub.Lo) and a degree of substitution with the short-chain component (DS.sub.Sh) satisfy the following conditional expressions (1) and (2), Izod impact strength is 5.0 kJ/m.sup.2 or more, and an MFR (melt flow rate at 210° C. and under a load of 5 kg) is 2 g/10 min or more. To provide a paramylon-based resin excellent in mechanical characteristics and thermoplasticity. 2.2≤DS.sub.Lo+DS.sub.Sh≤2.8 (1) 5≤DS.sub.Sh/DS.sub.Lo≤25 (2)
