Spirulina growing calendar

3 regions tracked across northern and tropical and southern hemispheres. 3 critical weather-sensitive windows globally.

Annual cycle by region

Each row tracks one production region across the calendar year. Amber bars mark critical weather-sensitive windows where yield outcomes are determined.

Why these windows matter

Spirulina yields are determined disproportionately during a small number of weather-sensitive windows. Across the 3 production regions tracked here, 3 windows show outsized sensitivity to rainfall, temperature, or storm damage. Buyers who track these windows can position contracts ahead of price moves driven by yield uncertainty.

The calendar above is structural, not predictive — it shows where and when spirulina grows under normal conditions. Weather anomalies (El Niño, La Niña, regional droughts) shift these windows by weeks and compound across regions. ATLAS tracks these anomalies in its supply-risk data and surfaces them on the spirulina risk surface.
