About
- Escape incidents rarely occur during a production cycle
- However due to unintended factors such as extreme weather events, predation or human error, fish may escape from our farming facilities
- Mowi has set a target of zero escapes as escapees have the potential for ecological interactions and interbreeding with wild populations and represent a financial loss
Our Strategy
- Implementation of national technical standards
- Prevention of human errors through training and technological innovations that increase the robustness of our farming equipment
- Work together with wild fisheries associations on genetic introgression studies to better understand current levels of hybridisation and possible impacts on recipient wild populations
Targets
- Positive trend towards zero-escapes
- 100% of site personnel trained on Mowi’s Farming Excellence Program – Zero escapes
KPIs
- Number of escaped fish/escape incidents
- % of site personnel trained on escape prevention
