However, serious declines in abundance have been observed in many wild stocks, a situation which has stimulated the increasing global interest for cod farming. In Norway, which is one of the largest producing countries, current aquaculture production is approximately 7500 tons. This industry has considerable potential to expand, and the Norwegian government has issued sufficient farming licenses to enable a commercial production of approximately 300 000 tons. ... |
