Norwegian cod fishermen should expect to earn less next year despite looming quota drop

Next year's quota reduction for Barents Sea cod will be greater than the price increase, according to seafood analyst Finn-Arne Egeness.

Cod prices will rise, but not enough to make up for the reduction in quotas, says a seafood analyst. Here is the Lofoten boat "Noregg" delivering skrei on Sto in Vesteralen this winter.
