Captain Bryan Langford invented this relocation technique in response to the need for sustainable mitigative action for Jamaica’s seagrass beds, specifically Thalassia testudinum or Turtle Grass. D & E Marine has used scientific variables and incorporated them into construction methods to formulate the cut-and-go method, as more environmentally-conscious alternate to the notorious “dig-and-dash” technique, with the capacity to relocate up to 100 square metres per day. Captain Langford’s method was officially patented in July of 2019 and has seen a success rate of over ~90% for replanted beds under regulated monitoring. These favourable results are reflective of positive changes observed in seagrass densities and overall area coverages seen in the advances of their seaward margins overtime.
