Probably less than an hour, what’s more important is the project. Dual usage of offshore wind farms for seaweed farming could have great benefits as noted in the article. Not only can it provide more jobs making the farm more attractive, but it can serve as animal feed, clothing materials, an alternative for plastic, or just sit as a carbon sink.

Exactly, very few input costs, just ropes, nets no herbicides, fertlizer and you dont have to own land just get a licence for a bit of ocean. A small startup investment cost. Given the worsening drought in California and other parts of the US you dont have to worry about water.
