Requirement raw material

The Group cooperates with different feed suppliers in the work to achieve requirements.

Conscious choices

The Group has worked for a long time to change feed composition and have made some decisions regarding the fish feed we use for our salmon:

Our feed contains:

  • No salmon oil
  • No GMO
  • No ethoxyquin
  • No palm oil
  • No chitin inhibitors
  • No bone or blood meal
  • Insect meal
  • Microalgae
  • Camelina oil
  • 5% EPA and DHA
  • Less Omega 6 than an average Atlantic salmon

These choices has resulted in a new product brand: «Lerøy Salmon™»
