Salmon prices expected to remain stable next week

There is little aberration expected between Atlantic salmon prices this week and next, industry sources told IntraFish.

One farmer in northern Norway reported prices of NOK 33 (€4.40/$6)-34 for industrial sizes. Size 2-3 kilogram fish are a little cheaper, perhaps around NOK 30 (€4/$5.50), he said.

However, demand for salmon is "tremendous," he said. "The market seems to believe there is no increase in the biomass to come, and that it becomes rather difficult to obtain fish. I expect prices will remain well over NOK 30 million (€4 million/$5.50
