Abstract
The Ocean Food and Energy Farm (OFEF) concept involves utilizing the energy from the sun and the nutrients residing in the oceans in large scale farming of the oceans to grow kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) and marine animals. The initial systems analysis of the Ocean Food and Energy Farm is reported. A preliminary evaluation of the economic and technological feasibility of the concept is presented. Data and information needed for formulating an effective research and development strategy are also presented.Keywords
