| Organic aquaculture production is attaining impressive growth and demand is strongest in Europe. Countries like Germany, France and Switzerland particularly have stronger consumption markets. In 2010, the European Union implemented a harmonized system of organic aquaculture production principles for all member states. The regulation requires that fish production should exclusively be based on organic fry from 2016. Given that antibiotic use is only allowed in very strict limits, robustness of the fry to diseases is very crucial, particularly for countries like Denmark where serious trout fry diseases are a major concern. In spite of this, Denmark is making headway in organic aquaculture production, currently being the leading supplier of organic rainbow... |

| The report compares ecolabeled seafood premiums observed in the market with consumers’ stated willingness to pay premiums. Also ecolabeled premiums in the agricultural sector were examined. The next issue addressed was the sensitivity of changes in the price and premiums of ecolabeled seafood. Empirical findings showed that all things being equal, consumers stated willingness to pay reflects in their actual market behavior though they may pay less than stated. Premiums observed in the aquaculture (24-38%) appear to be generally higher than the fisheries (10-13%). Stated premiums for environmentally sound seafood production however ranged from 15-50%. In the agricultural sector, revealed premiums mostly seem to lie in range of 10-50% with few extremes and... |

| The year 2016 will be pivotal for organic aquaculture producers in EU, because it represents the deadline for implementing the complete organic life cycle in aquaculture production. Depending on the sturdiness of farms already producing, such a shift in the industry may affect production costs of exclusively using organic fry for production. If the profitability of the primary organic aquaculture producers should be maintained, then farmers must be able to correspondingly receive higher prices, transmitted through the value chain from the retail market. This study identifies the price premium for organic salmon in Danish retail sale using consumer panel scanner data from households by applying a random effect hedonic price model that permits unobserved... |

| Sustainably produced food products have rapidly grown in popularity within the last years. Eco-labeling systems to indicate the environmental sustainability of product have also been implemented in the seafood market, with the MSC label for wild fish as the leading one. However, it is not clear whether consumers really notice the values behind an eco-label and how important these attributes are in their purchasing decision. This study analyzes data from a large household scanner panel to investigate actual consumer purchasing behavior and preferences when faced with competing product attributes such as organic and MSC labeled for salmon in Denmark. To accomplish these objectives and explicitly account for consumer heterogeneity, a mixed logit as well as a... |

| The past decades have experienced growing demand for ecolabels displaying environmental and sustainability information, with associated price premiums. With growing number of ecolabels in the markets, strategic positioning is required to attract value. Nevertheless, consumer preference for other attributes, for example, local products appears to be overshadowing the value for ecolabels. A suitable communication and education strategy for consumers is warranted to counteract this effect. Using stated choice experiment, we test for the effect of different types of information regarding organic aquaculture production principles on the demand for portion size trout in the German market, while considering other important product attributes. The results indicate... |
