Abstract: This study analyzes seaweed agro-industry management in Indonesia with a focus on its potential, challenges, and prospects. The potential of seaweed agroindustry in Indonesia can be seen from the wealth of abundant seaweed natural resources and the diversity of species in various regions. The domestic and export markets are promising, with seaweed applications in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and other industrial raw materials industries. However, challenges in seaweed agro-industry management are also significant, such as complex licensing, limited production technology, and challenges in marketing and distribution. Environmental sustainability is also an important issue that needs attention. To overcome these challenges, seaweed agro-industry management in Indonesia needs to be carried out comprehensively, involving the identification of relevant stakeholders, sustainable natural resource management, production technology innovation, and effective marketing strategies. The prospects for seaweed agro-industry development include market growth potential, export opportunities and strengthening competitiveness, agro-industry cluster development, as well as the government's role in encouraging the development of this sector. This study concludes that seaweed agro-industry management in Indonesia has great potential to be developed. Despite facing significant challenges, with the right strategic measures, the sector can develop sustainably. The implications and recommendations of this research are expected to help policy makers, industry players, and researchers in supporting the development of seaweed agroindustry in Indonesia.
