There is a need for an intricate balance of farmed vs wild salmon. As stated in the book, the wild populations are no where near enough to sustain the demand of the market. Therefore, a balance is going to need to be met where consumers are still able to purchase their fish while protecting wild stocks. This could involve farm reform, i for one am not a proponent of net penning, and believe a lot of the issues at hand pertain to farmed fish sharing habitats with wild populations.
