Optimal Post-Harvest Handling & Storage

Past Event Details

The moments between harvest and processing are critically important in determining your kelp’s quality. In this webinar, we’ll walk through GreenWave’s pilot-scale research on sugar kelp handling, storage, and implications for shelf life. Join GreenWave’s Market Development team in an interactive session to discuss: 

• Previously established best practices for handling & storage

• Different post-harvest storage containers and how they impact kelp’s quality  

• Respirate rates – what are they and why do we care?

• What we know about preserving your kelp after harvest to extend shelf life

Please note this will be an interactive discussion. We encourage you to read Sugar Kelp Respiration Rates & Implications for Post-Harvest Handling before the webinar. Come prepared with questions and your own experiences with handling and storing kelp.
