Danish feed giant BioMar has appointed Odd Helge Romarheim as a specialist in nutrition and feeding.

Starting his role on March 4, Romarheim will be responsible for growth feed for salmon and trout within Biomar Norge’s technical department.

He brings an MSc and PhD in fish nutrition from NMBU, with previous experience as a researcher at the same university and 11 years at Nofima’s feed technology center in Bergen.

“Being able to work with BioMar’s growth feed was an opportunity that I couldn’t pass up. I have previously worked with both nutrition and feed for fish associated with various research institutions, so working even closer to the farming industry is very exciting. In BioMar, I have a really good opportunity to help develop the industry further,” said Romarheim.

Biomar, owned by Danish industrial group Schouw & Co., operates 16 feed factories worldwide, serving around 80 countries and over 45 different fish species.
