“Freshwater and Marine Resources Freshwater is important for Mowi and is used both directly and indirectly in our operations, in the initial stages of farming to produce smolts prior to sea transfer as well as at our processing plants to keep high hygienic standards, and from the use of agricultural feed raw materials.”

Annual report 2024A · The company itself

“Therefore, the majority (99%) of freshwater withdrawal in our business comes from the initial life stage of production of salmon. Although we do not farm in countries with freshwater scarcity, we still focus our efforts and resources on freshwater efficiency at our freshwater farming units, feed and processing plants.”

Annual report 2024A · The company itself

“Our KPI associated with water withdrawal intensity (m3/tonne of fish processed) at our processing plants located in high overall water risk is percentage reduction in water intensity. 2018 water intensity data at our processing plants located in high water scarcity areas are used as the baseline for assessing the target in place during 2024 (or the most recent complete year of typical production, if 2018 is not applicable). Freshwater withdrawal and discharge are reported internally on a quarterly basis by all of our processing plants, whilst a detailed freshwater survey of all our processing, farming, nutrition and feed plants is undertaken on an annual basis for public disclosure through our annual report.”

Annual report 2024A · The company itself

“Mowi follows wastewater discharge limits (discharge volume and quality) per national regulations and aims to comply 100% with the volume and quality regulatory limits. All our processing plants discharging wastewater to freshwater do it through third-party wastewater treatment plants where regulatory limits are set by national environmental governmental agencies (therefore 0 m3 discharged to freshwater environments).”

“Actions We have initiated a water withdrawal intensity reduction target, which aims to reduce our water withdrawal intensity (m3/tonne production).”

Annual report 2024A · The company itself

“Stakeholder consultations All of Mowi's processing plants assessed to be located in the high overall water risk category are consulted as a minimum on a quarterly basis, in order to review and, if necessary, enhance each facility's water saving initiatives or strategies in line with Mowi's targets to reduce water withdrawal at these locations.”

Annual report 2024A · The company itself

“Addressing areas at water risk As already covered in our Screening of Assets and Activities section, Mowi undertake an annual assessment of water risk across all our operational sites using the third party tool Aqueduct, to evaluate whether any of our sites are within the scope of our freshwater intensity target, previously described. This drives assets in scope to reduce water intensity (m3/tonne of production) through equipment upgrades, innovation, and management decisions.”

Annual report 2024A · The company itself

“In addition, soil and crop management requirements, including the use of cover crops, management of vegetation, management of crop succession and rotation, are core to the ProTerra standard. In 2024, additional to Mowi’s certification schemes that ensure agricultural raw materials are sourced from areas where water management is considered, we ran a water risk assessment using Mowi’s global due diligence process for suppliers. For those suppliers rated as high-risk in our water index (consisting of a wastewater discharge treatment index and a baseline water stress index) we have developed a Mowi Environmental survey including a water risk assessment to further understanding the risk profile and the actions being taken by our suppliers on aspects related to water scarce areas, monitoring of water withdrawal, consumption and discharge as well as water risk policies, water infrastructure, sustainable water supply, the protection of water bodies from pollution by agriculture activity, and water related targets.”

Annual report 2024A · The company itself

“Every year Comply 100% with the volume and quality regulatory limits for wastewater discharge to freshwater. When considering wastewater discharge directly to freshwater environments (i.e. surface wastewater discharge), we follow, as a minimum, the World Bank wastewater limits for Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), Total Nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP), where the limit is applicable to the specific geography.”
