Summary In recent years, the salmon industry has undergone enormous contrasts in relation to profitability and increased production, as well as significant price fluctuations. The year 2000 was one of the most profitable the industry has experienced, while 2003 was among the absolute worst. In 2006, we are on our way to a new peak year. There is no doubt that the main reason for the fluctuations is that production growth is in line with market growth (demand growth). The large price volatility increases the risk for both breeders, producers of finished products and external investors. Extremely high prices are also detrimental to the industry's market activities through the trade's reduced willingness to invest in salmon at high raw material costs.
By finding out how market growth affects price formation, forecasts and
scenario analyzes will be prepared. Greater knowledge and awareness of how the market develops will put the industry in a better position to implement strategic decisions on market processing. Greater predictability about market developments could lead to better adapted production, so that price volatility is reduced. This in turn will reduce the risk in the salmon market.
