A new report published by Changing Markets is a must read for anyone still ignorant enough to eat farmed salmon - read online here

 

 

 

 

 

The Executive Summary includes:

 

 

 

 

"Over half a million tonnes of salmon – worth US$3.7 billion – died or escaped between 2010 and 2019. Mowi’s fish mortality rates accounted for almost half of this loss" @ChangingMarkets https://t.co/Yf1C5y6dSE @MowiScotlandLtd @ciwf @onekindtweet @Folketrygdfond @ScotlandSalmon pic.twitter.com/cD1rC4tpUR
