Bull Kelp

The King Island Kelp Industries factory support the commercial harvest and export of dried Bull Kelp from King Island. The price has jumped from $300 to $700 a tonne. On a good day, a team can collect a tonne of kelp, which makes the industry a potentially lucrative option for locals. The factory struggles to keep up with an increasing demand.
