Farms overview
In between being introduced to the Faivre technology which helps to run the trout farms, we asked Mr Jorgensen
about the general day to day running of the farms including the trout raised, how he goes about monitoring the nine
sites, and what challenges he faces.
Every site we visited produced either Rainbow or Brown trout, and operated using fresh water from springs or rivers; an
According to Mr
Jorgensen, the
trout raised on
sites typically have
an FCR (food
conversion rate) of
around one and are
fed on a variety of
Skretting feeds - one
of the global leaders
in providing nutrition
solutions for the
aquaculture industry
for the production of
shrimp and fish.
Closing thoughts
After a pleasant day visiting the trout farms it was great to see
the care and effort being put into the raising of these trout under
Mr Jorgensens management.
Plainly evident is the strong relationship the Jorgensen family
has developed with Faivre over the years- and it was a pleasure
to finally be able to see the aforementioned equipment in use.
The same technology discussed throughout this article can
be observed at a variety of aquaculture exhibitions throughout
2016, perhaps most notably they will attend Aquaculture UK
(Stand 41).
