Salmon farm industry in Scotland drives "acceptable" pesticide level in sediments below farms from 12 ng/kg in 2016 to 272 ng/kg in 2023. theferret.scot/pesticide-safe… #salmon #lobbyists #regulatorycapture @BBCWorld @WildFishCons @OrcaSOS @thenarwhalca @UBCIC @ClayoquotAction

A perfect way to increase biodiversity not just in rivers but also creating diverse corridors for a multitude of species to thrive and spread in

This is exactly the kind of freshwater riverine management that Scotland should be rolling out without delay. Trees provide shading to reduce temperature associated mortality in summer, roots and fallen limbs create complex habitats to protect juveniles and eggs from predation

@WesterRossSalmo Looks fantastic

Our salmon is sequentially numbered using tags to ensure that our distributers can be 100% sure that they are selling authentic Wester Ross salmon. Here are some of our salmon on display at Central Market, a top-end chain that is supplied by one of our top distributers, Wheelers.

@lovingourlochs @MarkMcSherryNY @SalmonScotland @marinescotland @CrownEstateScot @scotgov @theSNP @scotfooddrink @ScotTories @LochDuartSalmon Take a look at the amount of people employed, investment in equipment and infrastructure including housing for employees. That’s before the charitable contributions! Don’t get those kind of benefits from scotlands other agricultural sectors!

@MarkMcSherryNY @SalmonScotland @marinescotland @CrownEstateScot @scotgov @theSNP @scotfooddrink @ScotTories @LochDuartSalmon Is anyone able to glean what the net profit to Scotland is? After grants and other taxpayer monies. @scotgov say they can’t answer this as too difficult.If the net can’t be quantified in £’s then nobody knows if it is a financially valuable industry - including the government.

@MattHayesfish Environmental degradation and pollution (fertiliser and sewage) are what is killing fish in freshwater

Farmed salmon are one of the most toxic food sources on the planet while salmon farms are the worst polluters of our coastal waters. If eco activists want a tangible target salmon farms are Great place to start #salmon #pollution

Big news from the #Selune River! The first tagged salmon found its way back into the river after 100 years!! The removal of the Vezin dam and the La Roche Qui Boit dam shows that if you help nature, it can recover real quickly! 📸 European Rivers Network

@sussedaqua @SalmonPharming @TalkSalmon You still do though

@FishforBrains3 @SalmonPharming @TalkSalmon You don’t have to make things up with salmon farming.

Onshore, offshore, coastal; shellfish, seaweed, finfish - wherever it is, and whatever it is, most thinking people agree: we need a lot more aquaculture. Even the Guardian reluctantly acknowledges this: theguardian.com/environment/20…

@Jonnynogaps @OYFallTSM @HughMMitchell Nice GIF

@OYFallTSM @HughMMitchell @FishforBrains3 Says it all really, peoples genuine concerns used as an amusement. Welcome to the world of the unaccountable Factory Fish Farmers. Spin propaganda & multiple nameless accounts piggy backing to spew daily spin & propaganda for corporate owners who sit beyond reach to get the 🤑

Hope for a good turnout from the aquaculture detractors but really not holding out

Total value of global fisheries & aquaculture in 2020 = $406 Bn.; Market Cap of Tesla today = $763 Bn. Might we possibly be massively undervaluing food production and our natural resources…? Seriously..even you can’t eat cars ⁦⁦@elonmusk⁩

Look out for fresh, sustainable British trout in Waitrose, Sainsburys, Morrisons, Tesco and Ocado. It is also available to buy mail order from some online suppliers, plus you can get some delicious smoked trout and pates 😋 #trout #sustainablefish #buybritish #healthyfood

@OYFallTSM @Jonnynogaps I know, I should be relaxing on some beach somewhere (maybe at barcaldine 😜) cocktail in hand spending my hard earned dosh!
