The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries is pushing for an international standardization of the English name of laver to "GIM" in order to increase the international competitiveness of the domestic laver industry.
The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries announced measures to strengthen the competitiveness of the seaweed industry and stabilize supply and demand.
He then predicted that if recognized as an international standard, non-tariff barriers will be eased and exports will gain momentum.
In addition, in order to induce the production of high-quality seaweed, we plan to introduce a product rating system that differentiates prices according to grades.
In addition, to stabilize the supply and demand of laver, we will test whether aquaculture is possible even in the deep sea with a depth of 35m or more, and develop a method for aquaculture on land starting next year.
We also plan to establish a production system in response to climate change, such as developing seaweed farming varieties that are resistant to high temperatures by 2026 and distributing them to the site.
