So a company named West Coast Salmon, based in Norway, is building a salmon<\/a> farm in Reno, Nevada.<\/p>\n

It seems that West Coast Salmon plans on creating a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) to raise up to 50,000 metric tons (MT) of Atlantic salmon in Reno, Nevada. The goal? Getting into the U.S. West Coast market.<\/p>\n

The company has a three-phase development plan. Phase one’s goal is producing 12,600 MT of head-on, gutted salmon. Their operation calls for the construction of an on-site processing facility as well. They estimate first harvest in the second half of 2024.<\/p>\n

Nevada was chosen not just because of its acreage but also because it’s relatively near major markets, transportation, energy infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Nutreco\u2019s aquaculture division, Skretting, will provide its specialized RAS feed to the company, and AquaMaof, a major supplier of equipment to the global RAS sector, will provide the technology for the West Coast project.<\/p>\n

AquaMaof\u2019s technology allows for the raising of salmon year-round without the use of antibiotics or chemicals, and incorporates a proprietary water-recycling technique with minimum discharge and low power consumption, AquaMaof CEO David Hazut said in a press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
