Bring on ’flix’s farmer drama

This week’s announcement that Netflix has commissioned a new?comedy-drama, centred on rival Norwegian salmon farming families, is a welcome diversion from more weighty aquaculture themes. We’re eager to see how effectively the creators of?Salmon Island?skewer the egos of the industry’s rural high rollers and it will also be fascinating to see what impact it has on public perception a sector that’s currently being?hit hard by plundering politicos.

We’re also looking forward to the resumption of the conference season and any of our readers who want to benefit from a 10 percent discount on tickets to the?Blue Food Innovation Summit?can use this code: FISHSITE10.
