Abstract
This report analysed the seaweed carrageenan value chain in the Takalar region of South Sulawesi province, Indonesia, a region that produces about 20 percent of the world’s supply of carrageenan seaweed. Seaweed production contributes to the livelihoods of thousands of farmers and traders in South Sulawesi. We aimed to document the relationships and interactions between the different actors, understand the prices and costs within the value chain and explore opportunities to increase the incomes of seaweed farmers and traders. To achieve these objectives, we investigated various aspects of the seaweed production process, cost and price structures and relationships between different actors in the value chain, including farmers, traders and processors.
