EF 2024-25 · 2025-02-03
Résumé
Acadian Seaplants Limited is now the largest producer of cultivated Dulse globally. Previous IRAP contributions have been crucial to the technical advances achieved in the last two-three years including advances in strain
selection/development, productivity improvement, contamination control and prevention, and scale up. To ensure consistent quality and profitability, key challenges need to be addressed such as energy cost reduction, adaptation to morphological changes during harvesting and processing, and finished goods quality/food safety preservation during storage.

Description (French)
Acadian Seaplants Limited est aujourd’hui le plus grand producteur mondial de dulse cultivée. Les contributions antérieures du PARI ont été cruciales pour les progrès techniques réalisés au cours des deux ou trois dernières années, notamment en matière de sélection/développement de souches, d’amélioration de la productivité, de contrôle et de prévention de la contamination, et de mise à l’échelle. Pour garantir une qualité et une rentabilité constantes, il convient de relever des défis majeurs tels que la réduction des coûts énergétiques, l’adaptation aux changements morphologiques lors de la récolte et de la transformation, et la préservation de la qualité des produits finis et de la sécurité alimentaire pendant le stockage.
