ALL-FEMALE OVA The main advantage of this product is eliminating production setbacks arising from early maturation of males. An ideal solution for farmers having the entire production process from ova to harvest in land based RAS-plants that have higher breeding temperatures than 15°C. With this product our customers are only receiving female eggs.

TRIPLOID OVA Sterile salmon has been recognized as one of the solutions to the environmental challenge of escapees. In Norway, specific licenses are dedicated for farming of sterile salmon – so called green concessions. Through many years of R&D StofnFiskur has developed a secure method for triploidization of salmon ova. By using high pressure in combination with specific temperature levels, the fertilized ova get three pairs of chromosomes instead of the natural two, producing salmon that are unable to reproduce.

ORGANIC OVA At StofnFiskur’s land based production sites, we are in total control of the process – from brood fish to fertilized eye ova. In other words, an ideal setup for organic production, where specific protocols and requirements are to be applied in order to comply with the organic standards.

TAILOR MADE Some customers ask for specific weightings of traits that are not included in our standard product lines. We meet their demands with our Tailor Made product, letting the customer define the balance of the traits to suit their production challenges and opportunities.
