Business Planning for Kelp Farming, a 75-page guide and resource listing for new and prospective kelp farmers, is now available.
Created in response to a critical missing tool identified by the National Seaweed Hub Needs Assessment of 2020, it was written by Tammy Warner, professor of management at Keene State University, and Robert Pomeroy, extension specialist emeritus at CT Sea Grant, under the direction of Anoushka Concepcion, CTSG associate extension educator who focuses on seaweed aquaculture.
The guidebook is linked to a flexible financial model (worksheet) which will allow users to see dollars-and-cents impacts of their plans as they evolve.
The project was funded by CT Sea Grant and the UConn College of Agriculture, Health and Natural Resources.
