Indicator 2.10.5
by Contact on 8 October 2026
Requirement
Indicator applicability: Marine salmonids The UoC shall provide GHG emissions data to any subsequent ASC certified site to which it supplies fish for grow-out.
How Do I Interpret This Requirement?
-
In the case of marine salmonids, grow-out sites that supply fish to subsequent grow-out sites are required to be certified under the ASC Farm Standard.
-
This necessitates that they calculate and report GHG emissions as per Indicator 2.10.2.
-
This facilitates the sharing of data with subsequent grow-out sites to ensure that GHG calculations at the point of harvest include relevant inputs from the prior site.
-
Specific data on the energy inputs and feeds used from the prior site are not required. Only the GHG profile, reflecting the format of the ASC Farm Standard GHG Data Submission Template, is needed.
-
This does not apply to other species which do not require full certification of prior sites.
-
-
GHG profiles from hatcheries are not required, as explained above for Indicator 2.10.2.
Auditors Should Confirm
-
Subsequent grow-out sites are provided a GHG profile reflecting the format of the ASC Farm Standard GHG Data Submission Template either as part of regular process or upon request.
