my name is the calls back, said loud. thank you so much for joining in. welcome to don't hold a bad. a lot of people do that. it's all about saying it aloud. that's what it being nosy bay like good. everyone to king. check out the award winning called com . so hold back. sam and farming is a $1000000000.00 business and sales figures continue to rise. your way and sheila are the biggest players. we visit one of the biggest semen farms in the world, which has invested in new technology and whistle blower from g like reports in the industries darkseid. the physical illness stuff will find out why on transforming business. in recent decades, one scandal after another mass salmon dials, deadly infectious diseases deficient are treated with antibiotics and chemicals to
11:03 pm
find parasites and disease. is it still the same narrative? we take a look at norway, the world's largest sam and producer the profits of fish farms. there have risen massively since 2015 to over 3500000000 euros in 2022. the it may look like a ship, but the company says it's the world's biggest fish farm. it's run by north blocks, a huge agriculture firm in northern norway. the nets reached 56 meters deep into the sea, around 2 and a half 1000000 salmon swim around in them. the farm has been designed so that the human fish gets sick or die according to the sales and marketing director. normally we run the mortality rates. i would say around 5 percent, 4 to $6.00. so in the last 5 years, the fact that mortality re or are so low at the farm is due in part to this lease
11:04 pm
are gone. but more on that later the average mortality rates around norway is significantly higher. 17 percent one problem with agriculture parasites such as the salmon louse which repeatedly attacked the fish. it's a crustacean that can kill them for salmon. that's might not excuse the infested, farmed salmon, fresh water best. and they also use chemical baths to remove the salmon lice. but this can make the animal sick. one of the main reasons is handling you 2 treatments. again, some of us that said most of them lives now and title, so lots of treatment on that treatment is stressful for the fish and then they can for instance, general rooms, autos. this is eric bearing. his institute checks the health of, of fish. there's another problem,
11:05 pm
farms down and keep escaping from the nets and transmitting the salmon milestone. wild salmon when farmed wild salmon meet their hawks spring displaced the wild salmon stocks. this is another reason why the wild atlantics salmon is among the world's endangered species. this farm uses and laser beam to remove salmon lights. it's supposed to cook the infection rate and stump the fish from becoming too weak. the phone is also located in the open sea. now in a few words, the moving fresh water is supposed to reduce the disease and for station settlement and excrement on washed away more easily by the ocean currents. but this is only standard practice on this farm. nor lock says that it also operates 40 conventional farms and few words, like the entire industry. the company is under pressure. it has to invest in environmentally friendly facilities, and it can't afford to do so. global farmed salmon. revenue grew from over
11:06 pm
13000000000 euros in 2017, to more than 20000000000 in 2022. there's good money to be made from salmon and go back north locks owner has made a fortune worth hundreds of millions of bureaus. it's a similar story for billionaire is boost of it. so at the sun cost of the month of the film, our company aquaculture is growing more and more compared with fishing. although globally, most fish are still caught. but that is changing. agriculture production surpassed fishing in 2023 with 97000000 tons of the fish farming is controversial when it comes to salmon. many ask whether the species is suited to agriculture. the reason it's a predatory fish that needs both a certain amount of fish and it's feed this while it's doing right now this
11:07 pm
you need to feed more than one kilogram of wired. so just to get one kid around the sound, and this cannot be to stand after norway. sheeley is a leading producer of farmed salmon followed by britain, canada. and the pharaoh islands, which belong to denmark and g like salmon companies, and investors from norway such as sharon mach movies, and summer have expanded into the country. even conglomerate mitsubishi operates, they're in a key salmon farming region. in chile, we meet whistle blower, mario hans rebate. he worked in an agriculture facility owned by nova strong until 2021, and publicize the salmon farms breach of environmental regulations the, somewhere in the city. and we also have stolen insect thought. is going to freak
11:08 pm
out this. i'm on one of the mentors. i'm on it, go on all the time, you know, i don't know for you and send, but i don't know. good. you can use i'm it doesn't know what else where the bottom of the julian environmental supervisory authority. s m a in post a heavy fine on nova, and they had to close some farms with duncan within the visit the same, but on. i can close this out in the process of it on the sofa and plus the how to well can only will got to minute 3. the, the 3 level is here. what if i don't cost the fulton county itself in the internet? but another problem affects g life entire semen. farming industry at about x are used on a mass of scale to fight infectious disease. critics like veterinary and these then found a man says this in dangerous both humans and animals. and one of the experiments
11:09 pm
that will not rest expense and my sierra and fit within your generals a name. so continue because i've done by peterson for america. yes. that and so the sooner the better and 2 more antibiotics are used in sheila's fish farms than anywhere else in the world. 339 tons and 2023. there is less systematic monitoring and fewer sanctions than in europe. these conditions have made it easy for sam and farmers from norway to expand a g like but what might that are monitoring of salmon farms look like? for example, norway has been developing an interactive monitoring system for about 10 years. it receives data every week. the hundreds of salmon farms in the country are obliged to enter comprehensive data on various fish diseases. and there is a traffic light system. red production phones means salmon lice infestation for the
11:10 pm
infections proficient or too high. the traffic towards the system research study defines, what do you allow to increase your production on this just buys based on the way that the different companies partners control. xerox. this is by raleigh. just are you staying evanson? eat research as sam and diseases that he says right click and he's talking and, and they seize treatment and diagnosis and notify but diseases. i'm so but how reliable is the system which is based on self reporting? authorities conduct random checks which can lead to sanctions, fines, or prison sentences. occasionally we went and go out and see the come together. we
11:11 pm
made them come 1st and then we count on the compare the numbers. that's nice, i shall know to enroll goodness for teen monitors. officials in norway, the mostly it is correct. and we have some that is not correct. i mean, it depends on the severity of that the down wrong doing here. she lays ican nomic affairs. ministry also wants to improve the monitoring system for the countries. hundreds of reading facilities. the one such measure is that the farms must report on the amount of antibiotics or other chemicals they use. but how it is the monitoring work is of course difficult to say no, and the best, the numbers for shipment that's been more and more precise over the last 2 years
11:12 pm
under the more and more detail. but what does this mean for consumers? how can they find out which fish they're buying in the supermarket? there are many different quality labels. they all define global standards for the farming of fish. companies that want to gain certification from the apple culture stewardship. council or a, a c must comply with specific upper limits for infectious disease or fish mortality . so we're going to impose to set non stomachs. and then that is all based positive. i know that she needed. but it should also be a motivation for the timing of abuse, and that is good. that's a positive aspect. under some, some health conditions document that the teacher doesn't have to actually do it. the ac and label is one of the world's largest most license fish farms most may seems to be part of it. the organization has to farms inspected the
11:13 pm
a. a c says that several 100 fish farms are licensed in norway alone. if they're not able to do this, the label or the certification gets withdrawn or even canceled. so in the end they drop out of the program. this is toby how he represents ac. in german speaking countries, we can see that actually the, for example, in norway in 2023 alone, 52, a southern farms had to withdraw him from our program because they couldn't meet the requirements. but let's take another look at a completely new trend. closed agriculture. in norway, we made a farm manager with a pioneer experience. the company he works for says over 1000000 salmon swims and it's 30 breeding tanks. they do not use net. tanks, outer walls are made of plastic we're trying to find
11:14 pm
a new way of doing solving farming, and our goal is to reach the utopia of having the world's most sustainable solid farming. the benefits the salmon louse cannot penetrate the tanks. plastic outer layer and the farmed salmon cannot escape. a filter collects the fish excrement, which is then pumped to the surface. it is then drive and use for bio gas plants or is fertilizer. where the lib 7 farm or that i know that don't time. so you lice and uh, when the 2 steps to just drive inside of a good environment. 3 of have very good growth in are mental problems and the health of salmon are the biggest challenges facing the industry. more and more salmon are being produced as a result of agriculture. but uniform international standards and controls must be introduced to guarantee sustainable management in the sector and a reliable quality product. the
