The history of salmon farming in Norway is relatively short, but in such a short span of time, it has evolved from being small producers with a domestic market, to a worldwide industry exporting a variety of products to more than 140 countries. Norway is blessed with natural conditions fit for aquaculture. It had pioneers, who saw the opportunity and worked hard for what they believe in. Throughout the history of the industry, the fish farmers have always spoken with one voice, and therefore viewed as a serious partner with insight and knowledge. Apart from the bankruptcy of FOS in the middle eighties (during the period of liberalism), all the main thoughts of ideas of the fish farmers have been given full attention of the authorities. It always worked with the authorities and closely cooperated specially with the Ministry of Fisheries, the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Environment, who are in charge of the industry. Further, the fish farmers have been heavily involved in research and development, education and all endeavors related to the aquaculture industry. Though there was a fairly good understanding that what it wanted was a regulated industry, it also wanted to play a major part in drafting the regulations. From the very beginning, it wanted to build an independent industry free of any subsidies, this was also achieved. Through determined efforts in R&D and through cooperation, it has had a tremendous development in feed and feed technology, equipment and technology, vaccines and fish farming management. This in turn has made us more cost effective and has been crucial for its success as producer and exporter of farmed salmon and trout
