Organic feed is not yet available in Chile, so the company provides feed from its affiliated feed mill in Scotland to aid in organic production. Stocking density inside the sea cages is also adjusted with the new organic farming structure, where there is 99% water and only 1% salmon.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u201cOur team in Chile has driven this project forward with passion, commitment and respect for the environment.
