The former Faroe Islands Trade Council (Menningarstovan), Faroese Fisheries Laboratory (Fiskirannsóknarstovan), and Food, Environmental & Veterinary Agency (Heilsufrøðiliga Starvsstovan) have as a result of a compiled study written a booklet in English titled “An Index of Faroese Cod”. The booklet is also available in Faroese too.
The booklet describes the two independent codfish-stocks in Faroese water, their growth, feeding and fishing. The booklet contains a short description of the study results on nutritional value, fatty acids composition, minerals and trace elements, vitamins, amino acids, heavy metals and some organ chlorines. The booklet is available on request from the contributors or may be downloaded directly here:
