March 10 The big NASF debrief: salmon shifts, geopolitics and tech hype
Just days after news broke of Israeli and US strikes on Iran, the North Atlantic Seafood Forum opened in a cloud of geopolitical uncertainty. In this episode, we break down the mood on the ground in Bergen and what the industry is worrying about most.

We dive into the challenges facing salmon producers, from price pressure and trade barriers to regulatory constraints, and explore where companies see growth, including new product formats and expanding markets. We also unpack what the “new” Grieg Seafood looks like after major asset sales to Cermaq, and discuss developments in Chilean salmon and coho production.

Beyond salmon, we look at the outlook for land-based aquaculture heading into 2026 and what farmed cod producers revealed about the sector’s progress. In whitefish, tight quotas and soaring prices are forcing the industry to innovate, with emerging species like King Tilapia offering potential alternatives.

Finally, we explore the technologies generating the most excitement on the conference floor—from autonomous systems to smarter use of data—and examine the state of novel feed ingredients and why scaling them remains a challenge.
