seaweed

South Sulawesi is one of Indonesia’s leading regions in seaweed cultivation and export. The coastal areas, especially in regions such as Takalar, Jeneponto, and Bone, are renowned for producing high-quality seaweed, particularly Eucheuma cottonii and Gracilaria species. These seaweeds are cultivated using traditional and eco-friendly farming techniques, supported by the region’s warm waters and rich marine biodiversity.
