SFI Harvest is a Norwegian research and innovation project whose aim is to increase knowledge and develop technical solutions for sustainable fishing and processing of underutilized species from the lower levels of the food chain in the Norwegian Sea, especially redfish (Calanus finmarchicus) and light eating (Euphasia superba). The project involves a number of Norwegian foundations and companies, as well as a few selected foreign parties.
