FS11_06.09 Reducing discolouration of frozen at sea haddock

Summary

Some frozen at sea haddock develops a yellow discolouration, which although not harmful is a major problem for the UK seafood industry. Resolving this problem would potentially protect and make available £145m of legally caught haddock which is currently rejected. This represents nearly 50% of the total haddock market, which is worth £288m in the UK alone.
