Also to produce sufficient culture material (Alaria esculenta and Saccharina latissima) for spraying 10kms collector string with the remaining culture stock to be made available to industry for their own spraying of 10 km culture string (may be exceeded depending on market demand). The work is to be carried out in Ireland. The duration of the proposed work is February 2018 to December 2020.
