Seaweed export volume Indonesia 2014-2022
In 2022, Indonesia exported 253,680 metric tons of seaweed. Despite the decrease in export volume in 2020, during the pandemic, seaweed farming in Indonesia has been increasing. This shift could be due to a variety of reasons, including environmental conditions, farming practices, and COVID-19's effects. As a result of job losses during the epidemic, for example, seaweed production has skyrocketed in Bali.
