Norwegian Food Safety Authority approves Vevelstad Settefisk's application for large-scale smolt facility in Norland, aiming to produce up to 20 million juvenile salmon per year.
An independent investigation estimates that these products constituted just under 1% of the total volume of fish and approximately 0.5% of PNS's revenue over the last three years.
"We believe that improvement at the system level means improvement for as many animals as possible," said Bård Skjelstad, Director of Aquaculture at the Norwegian Food Safety Authority.
