For the 2 that are not on FB, 2 of only a few behind the times.


This is GROUND-BREAKING Norway is saying that their salmon farming farming industry needs to move onto land for its OWN good. OK - sounds good lets make this happen and thank you to all the Norwegian fishermen who have not let the industry get away with the escape of up to a million farmed salmon and steelhead into Norwegian fjords. They have caused this conversation from Norway.

 - Norway must get facilities on land

 - Norway risk being ousted as farming nation if it does not open up for more farming land, according to the Directorate of Fisheries.

 More about farming in Norway

Published 01.30.2015, at. 13.09

 The conclusion can be read in the new report "salmon on land" .

 Fisheries proposes in the report to give deregulation of free licenses of salmon, trout and rainbow trout on land.

 Like the sea sites, paying onshore today a fee of up to 70 million. This fee believes Directorate onshore facilities will be spared.
 12 plants worldwide

 Jens Christian Holm Affairs presented the report at a conference in Bodø. He thinks Norwegian farmers have no choice.

 - I do not think we should put us on a pedestal and believe this will not happen if Norway will not.

 Frislippet of licenses shall be treated in Parliament in the spring. Fears in the industry has been that this will lead to the traditional Norwegian aquaculture becomes uncompetitive. Today Norway great competitive advantages thanks to a long and protected coastline. The advantage disappears if the plants harbors on land.

 Today there are 12 onshore in the world, most in the United States and Canada, two in Denmark. China, Poland and France also tried themselves.
 - Good tool against lice

 Holm Fisheries believes Norwegian breeders must be farsighted.

 - There is worse to be outdone by foreign companies that get delivered technology from abroad. It is after all better about Norwegian breeders are leading and delivering technology, he says.
 - Greater risk

 The industry itself is also not averse to trying, says Jon Arne Grøttum Director in Norwegian Seafood Federation.

 - But to try out onshore plants involves huge risk and large investments. We want to facilitate those who dare to take the risk, says Grøttum.

 - Is this realistic to achieve?

 - The general attitude in the industry is that this is a demanding task to get a good economy. Although, I think that it will be of greatest interest to extend juvenile phase, but a few are already trying today to bring an entire production cycle on land.

 - Will this destroy Norway's competitive advantage?

 - Whatever we do in Norway, we can not stop technology trend towards onshore plants in the world. When should we build competence in Norway.

Sure don't see much for telling the Americans to grow their salmon on land.

Aren't you glad we don't have those problems here

[chris gadsden]

And more bad news, is this happening here too? If not it may be just around the corner.

Penalties 15 new farms

 Even more farms are now being punished for spreading lice. FSA is preparing to issue orders to 15 new plants to halve production.

 Salmon farmers believe the punishment is too harsh.

 - Imagine yourself that revenues overnight halved. It is dramatic. Many of these cases may end as advokatmat says Head Ketil Rykhus in Norwegian Seafood Federation (FHL).

 Regional Director FSA Bjorn Rothe Knudtsen, believes too many breeders do a poor job of reducing lice. Two weeks ago, got the first three farmers ordered to halve production - including Bremnes Seas Whore Bømlo and Vindafjord. About a week follows FSA in with up to 15 new plants on the blacklist.
 publication names

 - It is not our goal to punish as many as possible. But all farms should remain below a specific level of salmon lice to prevent infection to other farms and wild fish. It is important to get weeded out these plants because they destroy others and contributes to several treatments with delousing agents, increased resistance and inferior fish health and welfare, says Knudtsen.

 There are plants with long-term exceedance of louse limits that now have limitations. The names of farmers are published. The measure is prepared as part of the government harder line against breeders.

 Lice and escapes considered aquaculture's problems.

 - Lengthy overruns can be an expression of that production is too large and that farmers lack treatment and utslaktningskapasitet says Knudtsen.

 Appeals against decisions will not get suspensive effect. It means that the reduction that the halving of production must be carried out even if the farmer complaints about the decision.

 - Do we complain, we will do everything to make any mistakes from our side no negative consequences for the companies, Knudtsen.
 farmers protest

 Head of Ketil Rykhus of FHL think complaints may come. Farm owners association has had a dialogue with the FSA, and warned against the scheme.

 - We believe that there are already measures that can be implemented earlier and faster slaughter plant that has a louse problem. It is a system which builds upon voluntary participation from the farmers, and orders from the FSA. Our view is that this scheme should be allowed to continue before the imposition of reduced production introduced, said Rykhus.

 He is concerned about the consequences for the smaller farming companies.

 - No breeders want to have lice - it is bad economics and bad welfare. But a measure that bisects a small breeder income is too drastic, says Rykhus.

Time for you to write to her and get everything straigtened out.

What's "utslaktningskapasitet"? Morton should use some of that GoFundMe money and hire a Norwegian translator.

I believe it was her efforts 10 years that have allowed pinks to return in good numbers today.
