But because fishmeal is a scarce resource and an expensive ingredient in salmon feed, producers have been using increasingly larger amounts of vegetable ingredients from agriculture. Scientists at Fiskeriforskning's department in Bergen have spent a lot of time working to discover which substances in the fishmeal the salmon is dependent on, so that they can produce a better and more reasonably priced feed. The research so far shows that one of these important components is hydroxyproline,...

In this part of Ohio, most of the fish are sold to farmers and homeowners wanting to stock their ponds, but some are...

The report, prepared for the Watershed Watch Salmon Society, concludes 1.1 million too many returning summer-run salmon were caught mainly by a commercial fleet eager to net its first profitable sockeye harvest in several years. Bert Ionson, DFOs regional resource manager for salmon, agrees too many sockeye were likely...
