I'm european and I prefer salmon sushi and it probably won't go away anytime soon. salmon is easy to farm and produce in masses.

  The problem with farming salmon is that the food pellets salmons eat are made out of wild caught fish. Typically, for every kg of salmon you need 2kg of wild caught fish...so not really sustainable.

    Current food-to-fish ratios are much closer to unity, usually 1.1 to 1.2. The nice thing about inefficiencies such as this one is that the cost is not externalized, thus companies have a large incentive towards reducing the problem.

    what is that ratio of the wild caught salmon?
