Crazy to label farmed salmon as ‘organic’

Is the labelling of farmed salmon “organic” a market ploy to hoodwink consumers?

The ongoing debate between Alaskan fishermen and the American Department of Agriculture is interesting.

The department says that salmon caught in the wild cannot be labelled “organic” as they are migratory fish, therefore it would be impossible to have traceability in regard to what they are feeding on. We all know farmed salmon are fed on fish meal, which is made up of processed fish caught in the wild.
