Farmed salmon is said to benefit the Highlands the most |
The Scottish Salmon Producers' Organisation said a survey it conducted found the Highlands and Islands was the region to benefit the most.
It received £149m annually and was also found to be the location for the bulk of Scotland's salmon suppliers.
The figures come a day after MSPs passed a new law introducing a tougher inspection system for fish farms.
Scottish Salmon Producers chief executive Sid Patten will detail the industry figures at a business meeting in Inverness.
