Fish n’ Bits – The Aquaculture Data Intelligence Podcast
Is Aquaculture the most sustainable protein source in the world and who exactly gets to decide if it is?
This week we look at the findings of the latest Coller Fairr Index, a report analyzing the sustainability and efficiency of protein production in the aquaculture industry. We take a comprehensive look at the history and methodology of the Fairr Index, highlighting its role in assessing the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) impacts of major agricultural companies. Learn why aquaculture, particularly Norwegian salmon farming, consistently ranks high on the index, and hear about both the challenges and future prospects for the industry, including the reliance on certifications and the potential for alternative feed ingredients.
This episode provides a nuanced view of aquaculture's role in sustainable protein production and its evolving relationship with ESG concerns. Let’s dive in.
