General Information

Celebes Seaweed Group (CSG), formed in 2008, is one of the companies in the group scheme, engaged in the trade of gracilaria seaweed. Starting from the

Agroniaga Cooperative, CSG implements an inclusive system, involving every stakeholder who can assist and cooperate, a value chain system for efficiency at

every stage of the business, which are production stage (farmers), distribution (farmers node), packing house, warehouse. Currently CSG group consists of 9

(nine) packed houses, by organizing farmers in Agroniaga Cooperative (consultant and farmers), SIDIK (distribution agency), MCF (Consultant and farmers),

ATM (transportation institution) as a system based on collaboration and transparency. CSG facilitates 11 UKM (Small and Medium Enterprises) in South

Sulawesi, to shorten the process of seaweed movement CSG which has a motto, "Smart Working, Prosperous Together".

In 2015, the number of farmers that is incorporated in CSG is approximately 2.500 people with nine packing house that is spread in Palopo, East Luwu, Bone,

Talakar, Bulukumba, Takalar, Makassar. Besides that, CSG is cooperating with seaweed operational factory in Cerana Subdistrict, Bone District. CSG is not so

concerned with SHU for the business results sharing, but rather putting higher profits on CSG members. CSG has public programs, such as building schools

and building soccer fields. In addition, there are interest-free loans for employees. CSG seeks to strengthen CSG members, because with strong members CSG

will also be stronger.

CSG joined the Seafood Savers program - WWF-Indonesia with the hope of gracilaria cultivation practices on CSG supply chain in Bone District and Takalar.

The signing of Full Member Seafood Savers cooperation agreement between WWF Indonesia and PT. Celebes Seaweed Group (CSG) was conducted on June

15, 2016, in Bali. More can be found at: http: //www.wwf.or.id/ruang_pers/berita_fakta/? 49042 / Seafood-Savers-Official-Accompanying-Two-Companies-

Aquaculture Practices

Commodity Name : Gracilaria Seaweed / Sango-sango / Gracilaria verrucosa

Cultivation Methods : Traditional pond cultivation with off-shore method

Dry Selling Price : IDR 3.500 - 7.500 / kg

Formerly, most of the ponds in South Sulawesi Province, especially in Bone and Takalar districts, are intensive cultivation ponds of Tiger Shrimp

(Peneaus monodon), but since the last 10 years have been converted into Gracilaria (Gracilaria verrucosa) cultivation ponds. Gracilaria seaweed

cultivation in 2 (two) areas is managed traditionally; Using the basic off-shore method in ponds. The cultivation process takes place in polyculture

(milkfish) with the maintenance period of 1 cultivation cycle ranges from 40-45 days. Every year, farmers are able to carry out Gracilaria cultivation

from 1-8 cycles. The pond area reaches 1-8 Ha and is generally located at the river estuary. The pond has 1-2 water gates that have been fitted nipah

or waring as a filter. Water depth for Gracilaria seaweed cultivation is 50-70 cm. In the process of cultivation, water change is done 3-5 times a week

by relying on the tides. The source of the seeds comes from the location of each pond and part of the harvest that is 20-25 days old. Harvest is done

when the age of Gracilaria seaweed reaches 40-45 days, Gracilaria ready for harvest is lifted from the bottom of the pond then rinsed with pond

water, then placed on the cork boat and then lifted to the bund for drying. The harvesting process is usually carried out in the morning. Drying

Gracilaria harvest takes place above the waring along the embankment of the pond. Duration of drying is 1 day, depending on weather conditions.

AIP Development Summary

Activities from January to June 2017 are the compliance level of Aquaculture Improvement Program (AIP) practice conducted by CSG to Better

Management Practices (BMP) of WWF-Indonesia Seaweed Cultivation is for Takalar farmers from 66% to 73.65% and Bone farmers from 53 % to

61%.

AIP implementation summary is as follows:

Principle 1 : Cultivation Group

Bone District

• Registration has been done on part of gracilaria fish ponds assisted by CSG for cultivation information update.

• The establishment of a group of gracilaria cultivators in Cenrana Subdistrict, Bone District which is the Pa'biritasi Group. Group

Members are 14 people.

• FGD of Pa'biritasi groups have been conducted to discuss the Articles of Association (AD) / Bylaws (ART).

Takalar District

• Inauguration of the Samaturu group has been done. Inauguration of Samaturu Group was attended by representatives of the

Department of Marine Affairs and Fisheries of Takalar District, WWF-ID Representative, Counselor Coordinator of Mappakasunggu

Subdistrict, PT. Celebes Seaweed Group (CSG) and 20 Gracilaria farmers. This inauguration was done by the signing of the inauguration

news and AD / ART as well as the ratification of Member Structure and the vision and mission of the samaturu group.

• Water quality measurements have been conducted on assisted farms as well as measurement of seaweed growth data

• Routine meetings have been conducted by members of the target group, CSG and WWF-ID representatives to discuss future group

activities such as strengthening group funding, Mangrove Planting and group equipment.

Principle 2 : Legality of cultivation business

Bone District

• Improvement of pond profile as one of the documents required to obtain TPUPI.

Takalar District

• The pond profile has been made as one of the documents required to obtain TPUPI.

• SPPT collection, photocopy of ID card, 3X4 Photo Fill and application letter of TPUPI as file for the handling of TPUPI to DKP Takalar.

Principle 3 : Cultivation Planning and Preparation

Bone District

• Availability of pond profiles as a reference for plan forming and preparation of cultivation that will be carried out by farmers groups

Takalar District

• Availability of pond profiles as a reference for plan forming and preparation of cultivation that will be carried out by farmers groups

• Availability of daily cultivation data of Gracilaria seaweed cultivation activities by each group member.

• Availability of water quality data and seaweed growth data.

• Availability of economic data and financial planning of gracilaria cultivators.

Principle 4 : Nursery

Bone District

• Seeds used are seeds from surrounding seaweed cultivation areas, average seedings have been used for many years.

Takalar District

• Seeds used are seeds from surrounding seaweed cultivation areas, average seedings have been used for many years.

Principle 5 : Cultivation Construction

Bone District

• The height of embankment is 1 meter, the pond is located on the edge of the Cenrana river estuary. Many of the ponds are former intensive

tiger prawn aquaculture.

Takalar District

• Construction of cultivation in some locations has an average height of embankment ± 1 meter. Pond is located on the edge of the river and

the sea. There are several ponds that are formerly tiger prawn intensive.

Principle 6 : Planting and Maintenance

Bone District

• Availability of profile of planting and maintenance methods undertaken by farmers. Seedings planted around 500 - 1000 kg / ha. Spread

evenly throughout the bottom of the pond. And carrying out water input and release periodically by relying on tides. Seaweed growth will be

good along with the rate of water circulation in the pond. Maintenance performed for 45 days.

Takalar District

• The number of initial seedings stocked ranges from 500 kg-2 tons adjusted to the land area. The distribution is done evenly throughout the

bottom of the pond. Distance between seeds at the bottom of the pond adjusted with the number of seeds available. Seaweed is maintained

for 45 days. Water change is done daily by relying on the tides. When the tide occurs, the entrance door and the exit door of the water is

opened so that the pond water circulation occurs.

Principle 7 : Pests and diseases

• Pests that often attack seaweed is moss, a way of control that is with the maintenance of milkfish. In addition to moss, there is also barnacles,

which are usually attached to seaweed.

• Diseases and seaweed diseases is more caused by decreased quality of waters, such as turbidity, excess or lack of salinity, which makes the

seaweed dwarf, blackened, and easily broken.

Principle 8 : Harvest and post harvest

Bone District

• Socialization of harvest and post harvest methods according to industry needs standards, CBIB and BMP of Gracilaria cultivation. Harvesting

is done after 45 days of gracilaria maintenance by lifting the seaweed onto the harvesting pot, which was previously washed to remove the

mud and dirt. Then the seaweed are dried in the embankment with a waring. Dried seaweed is collected in temporary storage for further

weighing and inserted into sacks then transported to CSG warehouse.

Takalar District

• Harvesting is done when gracilaria is 45 days old. However, during the rainy season or unsupporting weather the gracilaria harvest age can

be more than 45 days due to limited time for drying of seaweed due to weather. Harvesting is done during the morning until late afternoon.

Dried seaweed is collected in temporary storage for further weighing and inserted into sacks then transported to CSG warehouse.

Principle 9 : Social Aspect

• In general the social aspect is good with the cooperation between group members. Cultivators manage their own ponds and some are

farmers. The relationship between worker and owner is good enough because the sharing is fair enough, that is 50:50. This seaweed business

also opens for employment for harvest laborers, with the number of workers between 2 - 10 workers / plots.

Principle 10 : Cultivation Business Analysis

• Economic census has been conducted for each member of the group with the income range between Rp. 700,000-3.500.000 depending on

the number of plot cultivated. However, when calculated from the amount of expenditure from cultivation activities and the expenditure of

family members of each member of the group, the results obtained from seaweed cultivation are insufficient to cover monthly expenditure.

Principle 11 : Recording of Activities and Costs of Cultivation

• There is a recording book for daily activities of gracilaria seaweed cultivation and production data of each harvest
