Cod Farming in Nordic Countries conference
Cod farming issues will be addressed at the conference
The Cod Farming in Nordic Countries conference will be making a welcome return to Reykjavik on 21 September, the day before the Icelandic Fisheries Exhibition 2011.
Held at the Grand Hotel, attendees can benefit from both events making their visit even more valuable.
In recent years the fish farming industry has reduced its focus on cod farming and, as a result, the production of farmed cod has also reduced. Research and development work has been carried out for many years but there are still many challenges to be met before cod farming can become economical.
The main aim of the conference is to give an overview of the industry with discussions and estimates on how many years of development are required before cod farming in the Nordic countries becomes viable. Sessions will include:
- Important biological challenges and bottlenecks in cod farming
- Industrial view: Current setbacks in cod farming
- Where do we go from here? Processing of farmed and wild cod
