  • Resumen

  • Farmed salmon is the UK’s biggest food export – and Dr Josi Fernandes is obsessed!

    Josi joins Jan and Paul to talk about her work looking at salmon farming practices and sustainability in the UK and how her research in the area all started over a conversation in the pub.

    We discover what Josi has learned from speaking with salmon farmers, processors and retailers – though not everyone wanted to talk.

    We take in the differences between farmed and wild salmon; how farmed salmon came to be such a big market; the industrial scale of production; the environmental impacts of the practice; potential futures for the industry; and whether anyone in the studio eats salmon in the first place.
