salmon and trout and shellfish farming, including the
cultivation of mussels, oysters and scallops
BIM conducts an annual
survey in which all aquaculture companies are requested to
submit economic and operational details for the year. The
data is grouped by species and submitted to the EU in
aggregated format so your company or you as an individual
cannot be identified. The information collected helps to
inform European aquaculture policy.
International Salmon Farmers Association -
Aquaculture, or fish farming is centuries old. Salmon
farming began in Norway approximately 40 years ago but it
has become an economic driver and social mainstay of coastal
and rural communities all over the world – in countries like
Canada, the United States, Chile, the UK, Australia, New
Zealand, Iceland, Ireland and the Faroe Islands. Salmon
farming currently employs thousands of people, generates
billions of dollars into local economies and provides
leadership and training opportunities for young people so
that they can work and raise families in their home
communities. Farmed salmon has also become a staple part of
a healthy, nutritious and affordable diet for people of all
ages.
