State-of-the-art hatchery for Grieg in the Shetlands

摘要

As this issue of HI goes to press, Grieg Seafood Hjaltland will have completed the construction of a new hi-tech salmon hatchery in the Girlsta area of the Shetland Islands. The E15 million facility will provide 14 jobs and allow Grieg to provide up to five million smolt (about 85% of what the company needs) for its 21 farms in Shetland. Until now the smolt have been transported from mainland Scotland.
