For the fourth consecutive year,
The Coller FAIRR Protein Producer Index is the most detailed assessment of the largest meat, dairy and farmed fish producers in the world. Rankings for each of the 60 companies assessed are determined by a risk and opportunity score across environmental, social, and governance-related criteria including greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation and food safety.
Speaking about
Chief Sustainability and Technology Officer,
Salmon stands out
The 2022 report found that aquaculture companies, primarily salmon companies, continue to perform better than land animal protein producers. In fact,
'FAIRR's methodology continues to evolve, and companies are expected to report more and show progress on more metrics than when the rating started 5 years ago, so it is becoming increasingly harder to be on ranked on the top. Three Norwegian salmon companies are amongst the top 4 from all the 60 companies benchmarked. This reinforces the recognition of Norwegian salmon farming as frontrunners on sustainability,' Martins said.
