Sustainable transition of seafood production in Western Norway, using the Nordhordland region as an example – From Red to Green – Project 2.0. Should we do similar work for the rest of Western Norway?

The extent to which the measures will affect lice in the region depends on good cooperation and the choice of solutions. By drawing up a joint master plan in cooperation with the authorities, in which all production for all companies is viewed in context, a good basis is established for simulating the overall effect of the measures. It also provides a better opportunity to assess whether production area (PO) 4 can be turned green before making major investments.

The transition will be demanding and dependent on several major processes occurring simultaneously. It also involves significant risks in many areas.

Are we ready to look at the whole of Western Norway and draw up a master plan?

The report from the project "From red to green 2.0" is ready – Region Nordhordland
