Strong biological development has led to higher salmon production and pushed prices down this year. Arctic Securities now believes in better market balance.
The market-influencing spot price of Norwegian farmed salmon will bottom out at NOK 53 (£4.22) per kilo in July and August, and will average NOK 72 in the second half of the year, a seafood analyst believes.
While weaker prices are often associated with challenges in the industry, Nordby believes that the explanation this time is largely the opposite.High harvest weights, high superior share, and low mortality in Norway have contributed to more salmon coming on to the market.

Sajo is the first Korean company to install electronic monitoring systems on their longline vessels, part of a government initiative to collect better fisheries data and eradicate illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing.
