Delighted to announce that I’ll be attending the Indonesia Seaweed conference tomorrow in Jakarta! We’ll discuss Indonesia’s potential, market opportunities and tropical seaweed resilience. Looking forward to meeting the many seaweed processors and farmers participating. Come grab me to see what we can do to help you at Hatch Blue and Hatch Innovation Services. See you there!

New Zealand kelp for climate tour complete!🌊 🌱Hatch Innovation Services has concluded an amazingly productive exploration of New Zealand seaweed farming, aquaculture and blue carbon restoration projects. Some of the key insights we observed: 🔹From a policy perspective, we need greater alignment and support for seaweed farming and restoration. 🔹Biodiversity and nature restoration should play a bigger part in any discussion of credits. 🔹Aquaculture players are keen on blue carbon topics and seaweed farming, but revenue and profit potential are the main focus. …and there’s so much more to discuss! Connect with us to dive deeper into these exciting developments. Peter Green, Hatch Innovation Services, Hatch Blue.

🌊 Aquaculture Intelligence: Tackling the Sea Lice Challenge in Salmon Farming In this month’s update, we’re focusing on sea lice management—a critical issue as salmon farmers worldwide face pressure to balance environmental sustainability, fish health, and economic viability. 🌊This persistent challenge has driven the development of innovative solutions & strategies, from non-medical treatments to preventive solutions like submersible farms, lice skirts, and AI-driven monitoring.   Our project Analyst, Inken Tiedemann, shares insights on the latest innovations: 🧊 Non-Medical Treatments: driven by environmental concerns and rising resistance in lice, the industry has moved toward thermal, mechanical, and freshwater delousing solutions to avoid medicinal reliance—though these methods bring their welfare considerations. 🛡️ Preventive strategies: new farming technologies such as (semi-) closed containment systems, submersible or offshore farms, as well as lice skirts, electromagnetic fences or bubble curtains 📈Digitalisation: camera technologies and AI-based decision-making support for automatically monitoring lice levels and fish health, keeping handling stress to a minimum. At Hatch Innovation Services, we’re committed to advancing knowledge and supporting sustainable aquaculture practices. Want to learn more? Connect with us to explore the latest topics in new farming systems and their technologies, as well as insights into sea lice solutions and see how our insights can together help shape the future of sustainable aquaculture 🌍.

Hatch Innovation Services is excited to unveil the Alaska Mariculture Insights platform! 🎉 Developed in partnership with Southeast Conference and The Fish Site, this platform provides valuable insights into Alaska's seaweed and oyster farming sectors. Leveraging extensive research and interviews with key industry players—hatcheries, farmers, processors, and innovators—it offers a comprehensive analysis of the mariculture value chains, production data, technologies, and innovations. We hope this initiative will support a variety of stakeholders and contribute to a resilient blue economy in Alaska and a broader regenerative sector globally. 🌊 🌱Check out the platform here: https://lnkd.in/dueaai5V, and feel free to share it on your networks. In relation to this platform initiative, we have also produced a series of articles with our media company, the Fish Site. Explore here: https://lnkd.in/dAbdRFmF Huge congrats to the team Nitzan Unger, Moritz Mueller, Rob Fletcher, Niclas Riecken, Karlotta Rieve, Tanja Knabenschuh Hoel Read more: https://lnkd.in/dYFaJWJK #seaweed #oysters #alaska #regenerativefarming

In this month's Aquaculture Intelligence with The Fish Site, we talked about Blue Carbon! From our ongoing work in the blue carbon space, we are encountering several key challenges that have persisted over the years. Key Challenges: 💸 Blue Carbon Credits: the cost of blue carbon credits not fully covering restoration efforts, 📉 Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV): uncertainty remains for seaweed and seagrass projects. 🌿 Restoration Success Rates: low success rates in certain ecosystems hinder progress. Opportunities for Innovation: 🔬 Advanced Technologies: utilize sophisticated hyperspectral imaging and improved planting techniques. 🌊 Integration with Community Activities: co-locate blue carbon projects with aquaculture and ecotourism. Addressing these challenges while capitalizing on opportunities for innovation and support is essential for unlocking the full potential of blue carbon initiatives. Written by our project manager - Peter Green. And supported by our senior editor Rob Fletcher (And....do connect with Peter Green in New Zealand in October for the Kelp Climate Tour)

We’re thrilled to share that Hatch Innovation Services will be heading to New Zealand next month! Our very own Peter Green will be embarking on an exciting journey as part of the Kelp for Climate Tour, sponsored by Greenwave Aotearoa and EnviroStrat. Peter will be visiting various locations, engaging in insightful discussions on seaweed cultivation, the future of blue carbon, and the many opportunities these present for the sustainable aquaculture sector.
