Now that the EU is calling into question Norway’s trade rules over so-called “production fish”, we shed light on the ongoing controversy, starting with the salmon industry’s term “prodfisk” itself.
By now, the Norwegian Food Safety Authority assumes all companies are aware of the requirements, so it will increase action against those who continue to violate the rules.
Norwegian trade law bans the export of low-quality salmon with injuries or other defects, meaning the fish must be processed before it crosses the border.
The VIRIDIH2-PISCI project links together a land-based RAS farm with a 6MW hydrogen electrolysis plant, and aims to produce 6,000 tons of fish per year.
