'Not in the best interests of our fish': Scottish salmon farmer quits aquaculture certification program

Citing several changes to the salmon standard in recent months, SFF has now decided to voluntarily withdraw from the scheme.

SSF said it would seek to discuss the issues with the ASC directly over the coming weeks and months, "in the hope of helping shape a more informed, science-based standard that draws on the experiences of those on the front-line of salmon farming." — SSF said it would seek to discuss the issues with the ASC directly over the coming weeks and months, "in the hope of helping shape a more informed, science-based standard that draws on the experiences of those on the front-line of salmon farming."Photo: Scottish Sea Farms
