- The Seaweed Farmers of Bali are trapped at the bottom of the global supply chain
- Seaweed farming is hard underwater work for very little profit
- The seaweed market is subject to volatile pricing
- Harvests are subject to volatility and whole crops can be lost to storms and bad weather
- Seaweed is one of the few crops that is grown on Nusa Lembongan and is threatened to be lost to the tourism economy which would put locals at a huge risk if more lock downs or other world events stopped tourism again.
Seaweed farmers have no idea that they actually sit on an untapped gold mine. This nutrient-dense crop can be made into all kinds of food additives, skincare, and health care products!
