The pieces are starting to fall into place after the power struggle in the aquaculture industry. Now Salmar Norway swallows Royal Salmon, and gets Salmonor with the purchase.

Industry insiders interviewed on Friday said that the price of farmed salmon in Norway fell sharply this week after several weeks of record highs because buyers retreated and supply increased.
An exporter reported that the price of large salmon fell by 32%, from NOK 125 per kilogram (12.20 euros / US $12.70) to NOK 85 per kilogram (8.30 euros / US $8.60). 

The price of Norwegian farmed salmon will drop this week or next week. The price of farmed salmon in Norway will fall later due to the surge in the price of salmon in the first two weeks. At the same time, the salmon business media (SalmonBusiness) predicts that the size of Norwegian farmed salmon is 2-3 kg. The price will fall back to 98 crowns for the size and around 118 crowns for the 5-6kg size.

Norwegian seafood exports in April 2022 increased by 33% year-on-year to NOK 11.3 billion (USD 1.2 billion, EUR 1.1 billion), the highest in the industry's history for that month, following a record high in the first quarter. the highest record.

Norwegian fresh prices climbed to their highest level on record last week, with industry analysts speculating they may well have some way more to go.

Just a few days ago, 350,000 eye opening Atlantic salmon eggs airlifted from Iceland arrived in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province. After isolation and quarantine, they were put into the Nordic (China) salmon RAS land-based farm in Xiangshan, Ningbo for incubation.

With strong demand and reduced supply in the west before Easter, the already sky high price of salmon in Norway continued to rise.
One importer said: "the price is crazy, but it is also difficult to find the right products because they are so different." His company only purchases minimum products to fulfill the signed contract. The importer reported that their purchase price was 12-12.70 euros ($13-13.76) per kilogram.
