The farm design process is likely to be iterative. You might need to adjust your design throughout the start-up process based on feedback from your national permitting agency, availability of gear in your area, input from farmers in your area, etc. But in general, to start a farm, you’ll need to:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Pasirinkti auginimo sistemos tip\u0105 (-us).<\/li>\n
  2. Determine how many arrays you’ll need to meet your production goals.<\/li>\n
  3. Determine how large a site you’ll need to house your farm.<\/li>\n
  4. Pasirinkti vietovei tinkam\u0105 \u012frang\u0105.<\/li>\n

    When you’re first getting into ocean farming, there is a lot to figure out. Beyond the journey of finding and permitting your site, designing a farm, organizing seed, and identifying a market for your crop, there are two key questions to consider:<\/p>\n

    \n\t\t\tAr jums patinka toks darbas?\t<\/h4>\n

    \n\t\t\tAr j\u016bs\u0173 pasirinktoje teritorijoje gerai auga pas\u0117liai?\t<\/h4>\n\t

    Kaip ir daugel\u012f kit\u0173 dalyk\u0173 gyvenime, galite stengtis visk\u0105 suplanuoti ir numatyti, ta\u010diau geriausias b\u016bdas i\u0161 ties\u0173 atsakyti \u012f \u0161iuos klausimus \u2013 tai patirti patiems.<\/p>\n

    We recommend that you approach your first year of farming as a trial period. Think about your first season as a test run where you go through all the stages, steps, and processes of outplanting, growing, and harvesting on your chosen site, but you minimize your up-front capital expenditure to the best of your ability. You’ll learn as much your first year farming from growing two lines as you will twenty. And by minimizing your overhead, you’ll reduce the risk of losing a lot of money. In essence, you want to design and permit a farm, but plant a garden.<\/p>\n

    In an ideal world, every country would have a permitting process in place to allow farmers to easily lease and permit a test site to conduct these tests. In some countries, you can receive an experimental permit; a small inexpensive lease, which allow farmers to try out the industry. But unfortunately, many other countries don’t have this option, and the permitting process can be long and drawn out. In short, you don’t want to do it twice in two years. So, although you may not be growing at a full commercial scale until year two or even year three, it’s in your best interest to permit your farm for the full acreage required to operate your farm at scale, based on your calculations. Reach out to your \u201eCool Blue Future\u201c koordinatoriaus<\/a> .<\/p>\n

    As you go through the rest of this course, design and plan a farm that will help you meet your business goals, but keep in mind that you don’t need to install all the gear immediately. You could permit a 3-hectare site but only install two arrays your first year. Even though you don’t plan on running your full farm in year one, you should be roughly aware of how your farm will look and how much money you stand to earn when your farm is running at scale. So, it’s a good exercise to design your fully operational farm to the best of your ability.<\/p>\n

    The simplest, most straightforward way to grow kelp or mussels is with a single-line array. It’s the classic, original design that farmers have been using for decades. A single, horizontal growline is submerged about one meter below the surface and attached to anchors on either end. The single-line array is the design we recommend for all first-year farmers.<\/p>\n

    You might find you are able to maintain enough buoyancy with fewer buoys, especially early in the season when the crops aren’t adding substantial weight to the growline. Too much buoyancy early on can cause the growlines to surface during bad weather and cause damage to your crop. After outplanting, we mark the buoy connection points with a small cork that can easily be swapped out for a buoy later in the season.<\/p>\n

    In the diagram, you’ll notice we’ve incorporated the use of a tensioning buoy along the span of the anchor line. This small buoy raises in position in the water at low tide, helping to maintain tension on the growline as the water level fluctuates. Tag lines run from the anchor to a retrieval buoy on the surface, which helps farmers locate the anchor for retrieval or tensioning.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\"Anchor\n\t\tInkaras ir inkaravimo lynas, \u201eGreenWave\u201c iliustracija\n

    In the diagrams, you’ll notice that the profile view of the 5-line array looks similar to that of the single-line array. The anchoring system is virtually identical, though the anchors will need to be larger due to the increased weight and drag of the additional growlines. One notable difference between the two systems, however, is that the 5-line array does not incorporate buoys spliced directly to the growline. Instead, flotation buoys are attached with a bridle to the spreaders themselves. This bridle system is the unique element of the 5-line array.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\"5-line\n\t\t5 eili\u0173 sistemos vaizdas i\u0161 \u0161ono, \u201eGreenWave\u201c iliustracija\n\t\t\t\t\"5-line\n\t\t5 eili\u0173 sistemos vaizdas i\u0161 vir\u0161aus, \u201eGreenWave\u201c iliustracija\n

Ta\u010diau kai kurie atviroje j\u016broje esantys \u016bkiai naudoja daug ilgesnes 5 eili\u0173 sistemas. Tokiu atveju \u012frengiami tarpiniai skleid\u017eiantieji skersiniai su pl\u016bdurais i\u0161 ri\u0161an\u010diosiomis konstrukcijomis, kad per vis\u0105 auginimo linij\u0173 ilg\u012f b\u016bt\u0173 u\u017etikrintas tolygus pl\u016bdrumas.

    Penki\u0173 eili\u0173 sistema yra gana nauja koncepcija, tod\u0117l j\u016br\u0173 sodininkai ir \u016bkininkai vis dar tobulina ir ie\u0161ko geriausio modelio, ai\u0161kinasi, kada bei kur i\u0161ilgai auginimo linij\u0173 reikalingi papildomi i\u0161skleidimo skersiniai bei pl\u016bdurai.

    Maintaining even tension throughout the 5-line system is crucial to its success and stability. This can be achieved with careful preparation and monitoring once it has been deployed. When assembling the system on land, it’s critical that the growlines are measured under tension and cut to matching lengths; otherwise, the system will hang lopsided in the water.<\/p>\n

    Kad visa sistema b\u016bt\u0173 nuolat \u012ftempta, rekomenduojame naudoti specialius j\u016broje esan\u010dioms konstrukcijos \u012ftvirtinti skirtus inkarus (DEA), kuriuos galima reguliuoti sistemai esant vandenyje. Be to, \u012ftempimo pl\u016bdurai ir (arba) i\u0161ilgai inkaro lyno nutiesta grandin\u0117 suma\u017eina lyn\u0173 laisvum\u0105 atosl\u016bgio metu.<\/p>\n

    The 5-line system is more complex than the single-line array and requires a bit of precision and finagling to get right, so we don’t typically recommend it for first-year farmers. But, again, the benefit of the 5-line is that it allows for significantly higher production without an increase in farm footprint.<\/p>\n

    \n\t\t\tKontaktinio tinklo sistema\t<\/h3>\n\t

    Sud\u0117tingiausia yra daugyb\u0119 linij\u0173 jungianti auginimo sistema, dar vadinama kontaktinio tinklo sistema. Skirtingai nuo vienos eil\u0117s ir 5 eili\u0173 konstrukcij\u0173, turin\u010di\u0173 du inkaravimo ta\u0161kus, kontaktinio tinklo sistema naudoja ma\u017eiau, bet didesnius inkarus, kuriais \u012ftvirtinami glaud\u017eiai i\u0161d\u0117styt\u0173 auginimo linij\u0173 matricos kampai. Abiejuose sistemos galuose naudojama lenkta horizontali linija, vadinama kontaktinio tinklo \u012fr\u0117minimo linija, skirta pritvirtinti auginimo eiles prie inkar\u0173. Yra pavyzd\u017ei\u0173, kuomet tokio tipo sistema suprojektuota su net 55 atskiromis auginimo linijomis, i\u0161d\u0117stytomis vos keli\u0173 p\u0117d\u0173 atstumu viena nuo kitos.<\/p>\n

    Kontaktinio tinklo sistem\u0105 pristatome tam, kad supa\u017eindintume su vandenyn\u0173 ir j\u016br\u0173 \u016bki\u0173 konstrukcij\u0173 \u012fvairove, ta\u010diau nerekomenduojame \u0161ios konstrukcijos pradedantiesiems.

    Kontaktinio tinklo sistemos privalumas yra tas, kad joje auginimo eiles galima \u012frengti daug tankiau nei kit\u0173 tip\u0173 konstrukcijose. Jos tr\u016bkumas yra tas, kad reikalingi daug didesni inkarai nei vienos ir penki\u0173 eili\u0173 sistemoms. Taip pat reikia ma\u017eiau, bet didesni\u0173 pl\u016bdur\u0173, kad b\u016bt\u0173 palaikomas tinkamas sistemos pl\u016bdrumas.<\/p>\n

    \u0160iai konstrukcijai itin svarbus teisingas ir pastovus \u012ftempimas. Montuojant sistem\u0105, kiekviena auginimo linija turi b\u016bti i\u0161tempiama (arba i\u0161 anksto \u012ftempta) vienoda j\u0117ga prie\u0161 matuojant ir pjaunant lynus. Tinkamai nupjovus, sumontavus ir \u012ftempus, auginimo eil\u0117s i\u0161liks lygiagre\u010dioje pad\u0117tyje, o sistema tolygiai gul\u0117s vandenyje.<\/p>\n

    Due to the curved shape of the catenary framing line, it’s possible to maximize the growing area of the array by cutting each growline to a different length. However, this can sometimes lead to confusion, as it’s easy to get lines mixed up. Another solution is to cut all the growlines to equal length and have different length extension lines that connect the growlines to the catenary framing lines on either end. Either way, there is quite a bit of math that needs to be done to figure out the length to which each segment should be cut to maintain the proper shape of the catenary framing line.<\/p>\n

    We want to reiterate that this is a highly advanced design concept. Many farmers using the catenary system hire an engineer to help them with the design process. We do not recommend it for first-time farmers. If you’re considering a catenary array for your site and you’re not an engineer, we recommend that you hire one to steer you in the right direction.<\/p>\n

    It should also be noted that not every site can support a large-scale array, even with a large enough lease site. The catenary array can produce several hundred thousand pounds of biomass on a single site, and many areas don’t have enough nutrients in the water to support that level of crops. You should have a good understanding of the nutrients in your area-not to mention an established market for your produce-prior to investing in such a large and complex array.<\/p>\n

    Farming the ocean means navigating hundreds of unseen factors to support a floating system of lines and buoys. Every farm is different because all designs must ultimately be site-specific. Localized forces such as the current speed and direction, the exposure of your site, even the nutrient availability in the water, which influences the ultimate biomass of your kelp-all these factors will impact the drag on your system. The drag, in turn, dictates the size of your anchor, which impacts your lease area and your eventual startup costs.<\/p>\n

    When you’re just starting out, it can be overwhelming to try and keep all these different factors and impacts straight. For years, GreenWave has watched farmers in the US struggle with these complicated calculations, wishing there was an easier way. That’s why they built the Farm Design Tool: to do the math for you, so you can make the big-picture choices of how to ultimately construct and operate your farm.<\/p>\n

    GreenWave recommend that you use the Farm Design Tool early and often throughout your farm startup journey. First, use the Tool to learn. Get to know how site depth impacts lease size, how current changes anchor size, and how all these factors ultimately impact cost. Manipulate these variables to inform your thinking as you’re deciding what type of farm system to pursue. Then, use the Tool again as a planning resource when you’ve chosen a site and want to narrow in on the details.<\/p>\n

    The Farm Design Tool is a modeling tool built on a series of assumptions that inform the calculations behind the scenes. It isn’t perfect; there are some limitations. You should be aware of these assumptions and know that you’ll likely need to make some modifications to your design to suit the particulars of your site. Before you finalize your farm plans or make any major financial investment in your farm gear, you might want to verify your designs with a marine engineer.<\/p>\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\tADAPTUOTA GREENWAVE LEIDIMU\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAnkstesn\u0117 pamoka\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\tKita pamoka\n\t\t\t<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
