The fish feed of today consists of several different ingredients. Earlier only marine raw materials where used in the production of fish feed. But a growing aquaculture industry has led to a trend where more and more of resources comes from vegetable raw materials. Now the Norwegian authorities also open for the use of animal ingredients and therefore we will probably see that the proportion of marine resources will be reduced further. The table below shows the composition of the "traditional" fish feed (Waagbø et al., 2001) compared to a feed from 2007 (Skretting, 2008). The use of marine ingredients has been reduced from 68 to 52 percent of the raw materials used in marine origin.

Russia is formally withdrawing from a landmark environmental agreement that channeled billions in international funding to secure the Soviet nuclear legacy, leaving undone some of the most radioactively dangerous projects and burning one more bridge of potential cooperation with the West.
While Moscow pushes ahead with major oil, gas and mining projects in the Arctic—bringing more pollution to the fragile region—the spoils of these undertakings are sold to fuel Russia’s war economy, Bellona’s Ksenia Vakhrusheva told a side event at the COP 29, now underway in Baku, Azerbaijan.
