According to the company’s latest report, during May and June, they sold 514 tonnes of food fish at an average price of NOK 99.2 (£7.36) per kilo and achieved a superior share of 95 percent. Mortality levels were only 2.1 percent - considerably lower than the average in traditional net pen systems - where mortality levels averaged around 20 percent in Norway last year. |
