Fish welfare

Fish welfare is one of the foundations on which the harvest vessel concept is built. By stunning and slaughtering (bleeding) the fish at the cage site, we minimize handling. This results in less stressed fish and prevents fish from dying without proper stunning and slaughter.

The crowding operation, where the fish are gathered together, is a critical factor for ensuring good fish welfare at a farm. We are highly focused on optimizing this process and work continuously with the farmer to improve welfare during crowding.
