Each site is left fallow for a period of 5 to 12 months after each cycle.
 The pens are removed, as are all traces of farming, allowing natural regeneration of the seabed.
 This results in production levels roughly half the capacity possible under more intensive regimes but creates a near pristine environment for the smolt when they are brought to sea.
