Gary Hooper: Aquaculture NZ CEO on the Government's financial boost for salmon farming
from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge · host Newstalk ZB
The Government's sinking just under $12 million into salmon farming. The five-year aquaculture investment will increase production and drive-up exports. It's estimating the extra support will create an additional $500 million of exports by 2035. Aquaculture New Zealand Chief Executive Gary Hooper told Andrew Dickens that's a conservative figure. He says when everything is up and running, there will be up-to 60-million tonnes worth of exports annually – pushing a billion dollars in value.
