Norway to Challenge EU Price on Salmon
OSLO, Norway — Norway on Tuesday said it will challenge a minimum price for farmed salmon set by the European Union in the World Trade Organization. The EU last month extended the antidumping measure against Norwegian farmed salmon for up to five years to protect Scottish and Irish producers, who complained of being undercut by the Norwegians.
Fish farming is a key industry in Norway, with about 60 percent of its exports going to EU nations. Norway is not an EU member, but has close ties and virtually open borders with the bloc through the European Economic Area agreement.
