SeaGrow Actions
-
1. Direct-seeding farm (Norway system)
We deploy a modular Norwegian direct-seeding and cultivation system in Galway Bay (~12.8 km of lines) to demonstrate efficient, scalable seaweed farming.

-
2. IMTA with scallops
We run a nearby trial co-cultivating seaweed and scallops to test husbandry, yields, and co-benefits of integrated multi-trophic aquaculture.

-
3. Ecosystem monitoring & validation
We track biodiversity and water-quality indicators before, during, and after the grow cycle to verify environmental gains.

-
4. Policy, credits & outreach
We translate results into decision tools and eco-labelling inputs, explore carbon/nutrient credit pathways, and engage stakeholders through comms, schools, and workshops.

-
5. Black Sea pilot study
We prepare a feasibility and design package to replicate the regenerative ocean farming model in the Black Sea.

-
6. Mediterranean regulatory pathway
We map regulatory, policy, and market routes in the Mediterranean to enable farm deployment and product uptake.

-
7. Global Knowledge and Policy
We align findings with All-Atlantic and global blue-economy frameworks and publish guidance to support international replication.
