 === Is my algae business a farm or a manufacturing facility for regulatory purposes? ===
-It depends on what you do and which regulatory framework applies. For NACE statistical classification, algae cultivation falls under Division 03 (Aquaculture, whether seaweed or microalgae), not Agriculture (Division 01). For customs and trade, dried or fresh algae products are classified as agricultural/vegetable products under CN Chapter 12 (heading 1212 21/29). For organic certification purposes, seaweed aquaculture follows the aquaculture provisions of Regulation (EU) 2018/848. For feed hygiene (Regulation 183/2005), a feed business manufacturing algae-based feed is a food/feed business operator. The classification depends on the applicable framework — there is no single EU-level answer. → See [[algae:combined_nomenclature|Combined Nomenclature]] and [[algae:aquaculture|Aquaculture]].
