Title:
Sustainability practices in the global seaweed aquaculture industry: comparison between Maine and the Republic of Korea
Abstract:
The seaweed aquaculture industry has become the world’s fastest growing animal-based food sector. Historically seaweed has been grown and harvested in Asian countries, such as the Republic of Korea. In the past decade, this industry has found success in other regions of the world, such as Maine. While the scale of seaweed aquaculture in these areas differ, both can learn from one another how to remain economically and environmentally sustainable for the future.
