Abstract

Salmon is among the most popular species of fish consumed in the United States (US), Europe and Japan. Since 1980 the demand for salmon has fuelled a 300 per cent increase in the global production of salmonids, with aquaculture accounting for 60 per cent of the annual production of 1.2 mn tonnes, of which two-thirds come from Norway and Chile.
