Salmon Spot Price: Flat
Prices hold steady entering week 30.
The Norwegian salmon spot price is expected to remain flat in week 30 at EUR 5.71/kg (USD 6.53/kg), broadly unchanged from last week's EUR 5.64/kg, according to analysts.
Norwegian salmon export value in EUR terms rose 16.2% year on year in week 28, with the four-week rolling average at the same level. Export volumes reached 35,516 tonnes, up 5% year on year. The combination of higher volumes and rising prices continues to support strong export revenue growth compared to the same period last year.
Average harvest weight increased 10.4% year on year, reflecting favourable biological conditions. Analysts note that biomass levels entering the third quarter appear robust, with some upside potential to full-year harvest guidance. Growth conditions remain supportive heading into the summer months.
