Last Updated: 2024/11/05, Kelp is naturally distributed along the northern coast of Korea, northern Honshu, Hokkaido and the southern coast of the former Soviet Union, but Aomori and Iwate prefectures are the most distributed in Hokkaido, Japan. In addition, there is also a distribution along the coast of Wonsan, Korea. Kelp was not originally produced in China.

Kelp is naturally distributed along the northern coast of Korea, northern Honshu, Hokkaido and the southern coast of the former Soviet Union, but Aomori and Iwate prefectures are the most distributed in Hokkaido, Japan. In addition, it is also distributed along the coast of Wonsan, Korea. Kelp was not produced in China. Since its introduction, it has also grown naturally in the fertile sea areas of Liaodong and Shandong Peninsula in China. At present, artificial culture has been extended to Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong and other coastal areas, but it is a cold temperate species.

Where is the kelp produced well?

Kelp according to the sea area, south to north temperature difference, light, sea water quality and other factors, resulting in the quality and maturity of kelp are also different.

In China, kelp mainly has three major producing areas:

1. Xiapu area in Fujian Province, the sea water here is very clean, so the kelp grown out is of the best quality and the most expensive.

2. In Dalian, Liaoning Province, the harvest period of kelp is from mid-May to mid-July every year, and the quality of kelp is good, so it is in short supply.

3. In the Rongcheng area of Shandong Province, the harvest period is also from mid-May to mid-July every year, and the yield here is the largest. However, there are many industries in the north, and the sea water pollution is relatively serious, so the kelp leaves produced here are very wide, short and thick, and the taste is not very good, so the price is relatively cheap.

The above is the relevant introduction of the origin of kelp. I hope it will be helpful to you.
