Grieg Seafood has reported that the harvested volume and farming cost in Finnmark were impacted by Spironucleus Salmonicida, winter ulcers, and string jellyfish. In addition, low harvest volume influenced farming costs in Rogaland.
On the other hand, and due to challenging weather conditions and market expectations, parts of the 2023 planned harvest volume in Newfoundland have been deferred to 2024. The company has confirmed that this region is still in the development phase.
In total, Grieg Seafood's harvest volume for the fourth quarter of 2023 was approximately 21.800 tonnes GWT.
The company has confirmed that the complete Q4 2023 report will be released on Thursday 22 February 2024 at 06:00 CET.
