Through its downstream processing program, the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) is committed to strengthening Indonesia's position as a leading global seaweed industry player. The government has set a target of a 45 percent increase in seaweed production within five years, as outlined in the KKP's Strategic Plan.

The government's target for increased seaweed production is 10.6 million wet tons in 2015, 11.1 million tons in 2016, 13.4 million tons in 2017, 16.2 million tons in 2018, and 19.5 million tons in 2019.

In addition to pursuing production targets, the government is also implementing several measures to develop the seaweed industry. These policies include providing tax allowances to seaweed processing investors, exempting import duties from 2015 onwards, controlling raw material exports, and establishing industrial clusters.
