Meal3
  • If farmed salmon with the average PCB level found in this study were caught in the wild, EPA advice would restrict consumption to no more than one meal a month. (ewg.org)
  • Instead, farm raised salmon are fed on corn meal! (yourfishingescape.com)
  • If you're at the just over half-acre of farmland that is Grow North Farm for the farm-to-table lunch pop-up, you've got two meal options: A garden salad with a Za'atar spiced vinaigrette or chive Dijon dressing, a rhubarb basil spritzer, and either East African chapati bread or a Ukrainian meringue cookie.

Climate1
  • Nichols gained the support of the Global Aquaculture Alliance when he said changes in the climate and population demand improvements to fishing farm practices. (wikipedia.org)
Impacts1
  • However, despite an overwhelming body of scientific research detailing the negative impacts of salmon farming, a firsthand look at the areas affected, and increasing consumer awareness of the impacts of this product, Safeway is still unwilling to take a leadership role on the issue. (georgiastrait.org)
Hatchery2
  • Accessible only by boat from the closest hub community of Homer, the hatchery is one of 30 constructed by the state to boost commercial salmon fisheries that were struggling in the 1970s. (popsci.com)
  • This is the first step before the hatchery releases about 60 million paper clip-sized pink salmon into the ocean where they'll disperse to feed and mature by next summer. (popsci.com)

Stages1
  • Salmonids are usually farmed in two stages and in some places maybe more. (wikipedia.org)
Health8
  • Plaintiffs allege that concerns have been raised about the potential health risks of consuming the artificial coloring agents in particular and farm-raised salmon in general. (stanford.edu)
  • Plus, the staff monitors the health and living conditions of farmed salmon constantly, so no dangerous parasite can find its way in. (oshensalmon.com)
  • Why do health professionals recommend eating salmon? (oshensalmon.com)

Ecosystem1

Hatcheries1
  • In the late 19th century, salmon hatcheries were used in Europe and North America. (wikipedia.org)
Contamination1
  • The levels found in these tests track previous studies of farmed salmon contamination by scientists from Canada, Ireland, and the U.K. In total, these studies support the conclusion that American consumers nationwide are exposed to elevated PCB levels by eating farmed salmon. (ewg.org)
