Scaleable methodology for kelp forest regeneration

Short description of the action

With a unique integration between SME business, researchers and sea food exporting partners, a model for how to harvest sea urchins at scale can be possible. The norwegian blue forests have been grazed by over 50%, and the much needed kelp forests are disappearing. Utilising a blend of techniques and technology such as diving, trapping and underwater drones, we are able to make a difference at scale, by bringing the invasive speices to a consumers market and provide a new eco system balance in the arctic fjords. The project works closely with local stake holders, university and the local government.
