Land-based – What does the inspection campaign tell the Norwegian Environment Agency about the state of the industry?

Hilde Skarra from the Norwegian Environment Agency presents the results of the nationwide inspection campaign in 2024, in which 25% of the country's land-based fish farming facilities were inspected. A full 88% of the facilities had deviations in one or more main areas – especially in emissions and internal control. Skarra points to large variations in the industry, and emphasizes that three out of four facilities do not have good enough emission control. She also elaborates on what measures the industry itself can take to meet the requirements.
