MOTIVATIONS AND BARRIERS TO THE UTILIZATION OF SIDE-STREAMS FROM PELAGIC FISH PROCESSING FOR FOOD PURPOSES: THE POLISH AND NORWEGIAN PERSPECTIVE
Abstrak
Pelagic fish side-streams are nutritionally rich raw materials that are currently utilised for fishmeal, fish oil, and pet food. This study examined the motivators and barriers to using fish processing side-streams for human consumption in Poland and Norway. In Norway, the prospect of increased revenue and profit emerged as the primary motivator for enhanced side-stream utilization, whereas in Poland the highest-rated motivators were environmental benefits and waste reduction. Market-related factors were identified as the main barrier in Poland, whereas financial constraints were the primary issue in Norway. Industry representatives confirmed the technical feasibility of recovering valuable nutrients from side-streams but emphasized the need for proven technologies, investment security, and sufficient market demand to justify the new initiatives.
