The proportion of escaped farmed Atlantic salmon in the commercial fishery at West Greenland was estimated using samples of fish caught with drift-nets in the commercial fishery in 1991 and 1992. Identification of reared fish was carried out using scale analysis. Despite the fact that large numbers of salmon escape from fish farms around the north Atlantic, the proportion of farmed fish in this fishery was low, 1.1 % in 1991 and 1.4 % in 1992, and much lower than in the area of the Faroes fishery in the east Atlantic. The low number of fish farm escapees at Greenland is surprising since large numbers of farmed salmon are produced in countries from which most of the wild slamon that occur at West Greenland originate.
