Norwegian salmon farmer drops ASC eco-label over new tax rules

More than 40 percent of Norway’s salmon farms are ASC-certified and will be negatively affected by the surcharge on production.

All of Bremnes Seashore's facilities were ASC certified. The company is now discontinuing the scheme, due to tax rules and regulations on how much salmon it can keep in its cages. — All of Bremnes Seashore's facilities were ASC certified.
