This was echoed by a fish farmer innorthern Norway.

It's exactly the same price as lastFriday, the person said.

This means that the price of salmonwas stable around NOK 40 (€5.2/$6.8) to NOK 43 (€5.6/$7.3) for 3-6 kg for thethird week in a row.

One of the reasons for this stabilitymight be that next week there is a holiday in the middle of the week.
