Hello Ocean Farming Community,
In late July the National Organic Certification for Farmed Seaweed Workgroup released Draft Best Practices to solicit public comments. The attached document includes a copy of the Draft Best Practices, detailed responses to all comments received, and describes immediate next steps in the continued development of these Draft Best Practices.
Many of you took the time to contribute to the drafting of these Draft Best Practices over the past two years. Thank you for showing up to share your valuable expertise, perspectives and comments.
