Nuseed® Nutritional appointed Evy Vikene aquaculture lead for Europe/Norway. This is a new role that will support the adoption of Aquaterra omega-3 canola in the Norwegian, UK and EU aquaculture markets.

Vikene brings a wealth of knowledge from more than 25 years with Skretting Group, most recently serving as commercial director. “Aquaterra is going to be vital to stabilizing the omega-3 supply chain. I am delighted to join Nuseed in introducing this groundbreaking, plant-based ingredient to Norway and Europe,” said Vikene.

Marine raw materials are limited in supply and subject to volatility in volume and price. New raw materials are becoming essential for facilitating and expanding seafood production. Benita Boettner, Global GM for Nuseed Nutritional, said that “Vikene’s deep understanding of omega-3 supply challenges and the trust she has earned as an industry veteran are a welcome addition to our growing team.”

Pablo Berner will continue to support Nuseed Nutritional as aquaculture lead for the Americas, where his relationships and expertise have led to the successful commercialization of Aquaterra.
