Cod Canada
Canadian cod farming is primarily an aquaculture industry focused on Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), developed as a response to the catastrophic collapse of wild stocks and the 1992 fishing moratorium. While Norway remains the global leader in production, Canada farms cod in Newfoundland and Labrador and New Brunswick using a combination of onshore temperature-controlled tanks and offshore sea cages. The process typically involves hatching eggs in land-based facilities, raising larvae for several months, and then transferring juveniles to sea cages where they reach market weight (3–5 kg) in approximately 24 to 36 months
Farming of cod in Canada is a promising and growing sector that supports both economic and social development, particularly in northern and remote regions. With continued research and sustainable practices, the future of cod farming in Canada looks optimistic and full of potential.
