The murky waters of Chile's salmon industry
Salmon is one of the most widely consumed fish in the world, with global demand exploding in recent years. In Chile, salmon farming has become the country's second-largest industry after mining, accounting for more than a quarter of global production. For the country's southern regions, it has brought an economic boom. But this success comes at a cost: deadly workplace accidents, polluted waterways and a disastrous effect on wildlife in the area. FRANCE 24's Agathe Fourcade and Martin Chabal report.
