BAD NEWS BITES - 12th Post, Moving toward 5,000 Problems, Updated Sep 6, 2019

I receive 30 global press fish farm/seafood industry newsletters every week. In these, I have found a startling amount of bad news, and decided to do a post on it. I had no idea there was as much bad news as there is. This is my twelfth post in three years. And the last post ended at 4,000 problems, as I put 500 in each post before starting a new one. That post is dated Dec 20, 2018

Some days I am stunned by the amount of bad news in the fish farm/seafood industry.  Find the fifth BAD NEWS BITES post here: http://fishfarmnews.blogspot.ca/2017/05/bad-news-bites-fifth-post.html. And that reaches 2,000.

This is the link to the fourth post, Jan 14, 2017, it has 500 BAD NEWS BITES in it: http://fishfarmnews.blogspot.ca/2017/01/bad-news-bites.html. it has links to the previous three posts since July 2015. You can find earlier ones at these links.

This is the link to the ninth post, March 29, 2018: http://fishfarmnews.blogspot.com/2018/03/bad-news-bites.html.

This is the link to the tenth post, Aug 9, 2018:  https://fishfarmnews.blogspot.com/2018/08/bad-news-bites-aug-20-2018.html.

Here is a summary of the bad news stories:

"In one mouthful, here are the kind of stories I am finding: boom bust industry, billions made and lost, crisis in lice and disease, bankruptcy, workers fired, executives jumping company to company, dividing big bonuses, fraud, corruption, litigation, conflict of interest with government and scientists, using the ocean as a free open sewer – $10.4 Billion in BC alone, killing of whales, seals and sea lions – more than 12,000 in BC so far, slavery, unpaid labour, taxpayers paying millions for diseased, dead fish – $177 Million in Canada, dueling scientists, weakening of laws, unsustainable feed, illegal fishing, jail sentences, disasters in Norway, Scotland, Chile, Canada, bullying of scientists, governments and anyone critical of their business, cartels, collusion, price fixing, fishing down the food chain to Antarctic krill, carcinogens and persistent organic pollutants, fluoroquinolones, chicken feathers in feed, animal feces in feed, eutrophication in a time of global warming, Malachite Green fungFicide in USA seafood, fake industry awards, all the wild salmon in the Pacific ocean, more than a billion, put in peril... it goes on."

Update, Dec 11, 2017: I have found 500 BAD NEWS BITES in less than 3.5 months. That means well over 1000 in a year. That is how much bad news there is in fish farms/seafood industry. This post, the sixth, may be found here: http://fishfarmnews.blogspot.ca/2017/08/bad-news-bites-salmonseafood-industry.html.

Update, Mar 29, 2018: You will find the previous posts on these dates: 23/1/2018, 11/12/17, 29/8/17. 5/5/17, 14/1/17, 1/7/16, 6/5/16,  1/7/15, and a total of nearly 3,500 BAD NEWS BITES.  

Update Aug 9, 2018: I have found 500 BAD NEWS BITES since Mar 29, 2018. The total now stands at 3,500 in three years. The Aug post has 500 BAD NEWS BITES, bringing the total to 4,000 problems in three years.

"“It is significant that Mowi are saying it’s an internal decision and they’re making it conditional on the biomass being relocated. It’s a thoroughly empty statement because the idea the law would permit the unilateral transferring of biomass from one farm to another on the basis of the original farm failing its environmental standards is ridiculous,” he added."

'Estimates suggest around 460,000 tonnes of wild fish go into feeding Scottish farmed salmon each year – a similar quantity as is bought by the entire UK population.
Environmental campaign group Feedback has calculated the amount of fish caught will need to increase by two-thirds – around 310,000 tonnes – to allow the industry to double in size.'

316. Mowi Farm Closures - Scotland, the two farms have failed environmental standards for 15 years, they are not moving to be good guys. That is communications' spin: https://www.asf.ca/news-and-magazine/salmon-news/salmon-farms-in-uk-at-serious-risk-after-closures-due-to-environmental-damage. And to say that moving offshore reduces impact is silly. The same amount of feces will be raining down on a bigger environment, where they will want to increase fish numbers. So, overall a net increase in ocean eutrophication in a time of global warming. Not good.

220. Lice Kill Wild Salmonids - FINR, Norway, science paper. The humour in this one is the tone of fawning, groveling and mewling the scientists do because they are in Norway, where the industry shoots bullets through scientists if they don't like their work: https://www.salmon-trout.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Thorstad-Finstad-2018-Impacts-of-salmon-lice-NINA-Report-1449-2.pdf. Catch the groveling in the first paragraph: "Results from scientific studies on the impacts of salmon lice on Atlantic salmon and sea trout are summarized here. Considerable evidence exists that that there is a link between farm-intensive areas and the spread of salmon lice to wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout. Several studies have shown that the effects of salmon lice from fish farms on wild salmon and sea trout populations can be severe; ultimately reducing the number of adult fish due to salmon lice induced mortality, resulting in reduced stocks and reduced opportunitiesfor fisheries. Depending on the population size, elevated salmon lice levels can also result in too few spawners to reach conservation limits."

And that lice kill wild salmon: "Studies indicate an annual loss of 50,000 adult wild Atlantic salmon to Norwegian rivers because of salmon lice, which corresponds to an overall loss of 10% of the wild salmon because of salmon lice on a national level (i.e., including both farm-free and farm-intensive areas, based on data from the years 2010-2014). Salmon lice from fish farms are identified as one of the two largest threats to wild salmon in Norway."

In Ireland and Norway: "These studies show that lice-induced mortality in farm-intensive areas can lead to an averageof 12-29% fewer adult salmon." And uses 20% as the reasonable death rate, noting that sea trout (searun browns) death rate is higher because they stay near rivers and don't go to sea.

This paper has eight pages of dozens of lice studies.

Here is what lice do to salmon/sea trout: "Laboratory and field studies have shown that salmon lice may induce osmoregulatory dys-function (i.e. problems with the salt balance), physiological stress responses, anaemia, re-duced feeding and growth, increased susceptibility to secondary microbial infections, re-duced disease resistance and increased mortality in individual fish (see references in Fin-stad & Bjørn 2011, Finstad et al. 2011, Thorstad et al. 2015). Mortality starts to occur in the most severely infested fish within 10-20 days of exposure to lice larvae, when the lice have developed into preadult and adult stages."

219. Salmon Grown in a Lab? - we want to eat this? I'd say many don't: https://www.registercitizen.com/business/article/The-Beyond-Meat-of-fish-is-coming-14000381.php?fbclid=IwAR1H_MNlXnrwQbo0h6efqEuOUz1pNiNxeScHzfb9CyZyEYXrRo05MaYsSbg.
"Globally, demand for salmon has skyrocketed, along with that for all fish, fueling overfishing and threatening supply. Industrial-scale salmon farming, once seen as a solution, has its own problems. Massive stocks of smaller fish are depleted to feed farmed salmon, and parasites flourish in salmon pens where farmers use pesticides, contributing to pollution and ecosystem destruction. Sea lice have infested farms in Norway and Scotland in recent years, and a deadly algal bloom killed salmon in Chile, a top farmed-salmon producer. Farmed fish sometimes escape, too, contaminating nearby wild salmon."

And: "“Since 2015, the farm-raised salmon industry saw prices double and surge to record levels, even as the fish feed cost—which represents more than half of fish farmers’ production costs—has decreased due to the use of alternative raw materials,” reads the complaint filed by Hesh’s.

“Defendants’ long-standing conspiracy reflected a culture of increasing profits at the expense of plaintiff and other class members. Defendants could not have unilaterally demanded price increases for farm-raised salmon in recent years; they needed to conspire and agree to do so in a coordinated fashion.” "

"Each of the lawsuits filed cites the European Commission's (EC) ongoing investigation into the salmon farming sector, which was first revealed in February by Undercurrent News.

Letters had been sent by the EC in advance of the inspections, warning that the commission had received information "alleging that some Norwegian producers of farmed Norwegian Atlantic salmon" had participated in "anti-competitive agreements".

Raids also took place in the United Kingdom at the Scottish operations of Mowi (formerly Marine Harvest), Leroy, SalMar and Grieg. "

Insurance Cost and Coverage in In-ocean Fish Farms Covers Squat - because in-ocean fish farms suffer catastrophes at a far higher rate than other businesses: https://salmonbusiness.com/soft-insurance-coverage-against-e200-million-toxic-algae-bloom/. "Gjensidige is the largest insurance company for the Norwegian aquaculture industry struggling with a massive algae attack in the northern part of the country.

“All fish farmers have insurance that covers such events as this. For our part, the deductible the farmers themselves must cover is at least 20 per cent, and I will assume it is somewhat similar to the other companies,” says communications director at Gjensidige, Øystein Thoresen, to Dagens Næringsliv.
“Some farmers have a higher deductible, perhaps up to 40-50 per cent, either because they themselves want this for the sake of lower insurance premium or because we consider that the risk is high.”" And there is more: "However, the insurance only covers the cost of release of smolt, feeding and salaries up to the time of the injury. The lost income for fish not fed up to slaughter size is not covered.
Dagens Næringsliv has made rough calculations on a potential slaughter value of NOK 2 billion (€200 million) for the fish that has been choked by the algae in Troms and Nordland."

"Over 46,000 have now signed the petition, which in part makes these claims: "[Salmon farming] involves the introduction of exotic species in cages; the abuse of antibiotics, antiparasitics and other chemical substances; the introduction and spread of diseases and their causal agents; the accumulation of solid and liquid waste on the seabed; negative direct and indirect interactions with marine mammals and birds...[and is] highly damaging to our environment and [does] not contribute or generate jobs or local production.""
